My whole family was in absolute heaven when I created this paleo pumpkin pie recipe\u2014a dessert you can swoon over and not feel too guilty about eating!\u00a0 My daughter exclaimed, “If all my vegetables tasted like this, I wouldn’t even eat my dessert first at school, I would eat my vegetables!”<\/p>\n

Alas, I didn’t want to clarify that anything sweetened should be called a dessert and not a vegetable, but this is a wholesome treat to be feeding my family!<\/p>\n

I use fresh pumpkin puree for my pies. It really takes them to the gourmet\/utterly amazing level.\u00a0 Unfortunately, not all pumpkins and squashes should<\/strong> be baked and eaten.<\/p>\n

Like any fruit or vegetable, picking the best and ripest one ensures success and mouthwatering results. \u00a0On my blog I go into some detail about choosing and baking your own squash and pumpkin<\/a>. \u00a0Toni has instructions for cooking a pumpkin in the slow cooker<\/a>. Ultimately, you can use a can too, but I wanted to encourage you to use fresh!<\/p>\n

If you haven’t tried fresh pumpkin, I highly recommend it. Did you know that when you purchase canned pumpkin it is actually a mix of squashes. That is why using fresh pumpkin makes recipes so much sweeter.<\/p>\n

If you don’t know where to begin using fresh pumpkin check out this tutorial.<\/a><\/strong> It will change your life. Well maybe not change your life, but it will make your pumpkin experience 1000x better!<\/p>\n

You can use any premade or homemade crust you prefer. This filling will work in anyone’s crust!\u00a0 The crust below is free of grains and dairy, and it is totally flaky!<\/p>\n
