GLUTEN FREE PUMPKIN FILLING FOR PUMPKIN PIE

Here is a a pumpkin pie filling from scratch that is gluten free, it takes some time to prepare, so if you are one to not utilize a can of pumpkin filling here is a recipe that I tweaked from a local aunty.

1 small pumpkin (organic)
1 tbsp. cinnamon powder
3/4 cup raw sugar
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/2 tsp. ginger powder
1 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. rice flour
3 tbsp. Ener G Egg Replacer + 4 tbsp. of water (mixed well)
1 cup rice milk
2 tbsp. water
3/4 tsp. vanilla extract (Mc Cormick Pure Vanilla isn't organic, but it is gluten free, shop online to find an organic brand, try looking in your local health food store)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 deg. f.

1. Cut the pumpkin in quarters, and bake until soft, about 30 - 40 minutes, remove cool, and remove seeds, and scoop the soft meat into 1 3/4 cups.
2. Mix the softened pumpkin with the raw sugar, mix. Then add in the sea salt, ginger powder, cinnamon, and rice flour and mix. Then add in the Ener G mixture, and mix in the rice milk, water and vanilla extract.
3. Take the 8 inch pie crust that is below this post (Gluten Free Pie Crust), fill the pie shell, place in center rack in oven, and bake for approximately 40 minutes.



Ener G Egg Replacer can be found in natural food stores, it is an awesome substitute for eggs. It binds baking dishes very well as if using real eggs.
