Time 2h10m

Yield 2 pies

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (350 g) boxes silken tofu, drained
2 cups of cooked pumpkin
1 1/4 cups brown sugar, not packed tight
1 dash salt
7 teaspoons blended pumpkin pie spice
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground dried ginger
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon allspice
2 teaspoons nutmeg
2 vegan pie crusts

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375F.
  • Blend the tofu in a food processor or with a blender until smooth and cream-like; the blending may take three or four minutes total.
  • Stop the machine every once in a while to scrape large pieces of tofu down into the machine's blades.
  • Add two heaping cups of cooked pumpkin and blend some more, again stopping the machine and scraping the mixture down.
  • The result should be a light orange-colored paste with no lumps of tofu.
  • Put the paste into a large mixing bowl and add the sugar, salt, and spices.
  • Mix well and spoon it into two pie crusts; top with small bits of crust cut into shapes, if desired.
  • Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until the crusts are dark brown (but not burned).
