Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups vanilla almond milk, divided
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • Optional for garnish: dairy-free whipped cream, sprinkle of cinnamon, and/or some crushed dairy-free graham crackers

Instructions

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together ½ cup of the almond milk and the cornstarch until well-combined, then whisk in the egg. Set aside for now.
  2. To a medium pot, add the remaining 1 cup of almond milk, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Heat over medium heat and bring to a simmer.
  3. Slowly whisk in the almond milk/cornstarch/egg mixture. Bring to a boil while whisking frequently, then reduce heat to low.
  4. Add the pumpkin puree and continue cooking, whisking consistently, for about 3-4 minutes until the mixture is thickened.
  5. Remove from heat. Pour into individual serving containers and place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, until chilled.
  6. Serve chilled with optional dairy-free whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a crushed dairy-free graham cracker.

Recipe Notes

  • If you chill this in one large container instead of individual serving containers, it will need more time to chill.
  • If adding any optional garnishes, be sure they meet your allergen needs.
