Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Pumpkin puree
• 12 ounces Silken tofu
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 teaspoons Pumpkin pie spice
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 piece Pre-made graham cracker pie crust (optional for pie version)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a blender or food processor, combine the pumpkin puree, silken tofu, maple syrup, brown sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.

Step 3

Blend the mixture until completely smooth and well combined, scraping down the sides as needed.

Step 4

For the pie version: Pour the blended mixture into a pre-made graham cracker pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 5

For the custard version: Divide the mixture evenly into individual ramekins or custard cups and place them in a deep baking dish.

Step 6

If baking custards, pour hot water into the baking dish until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins, creating a water bath.

Step 7

Bake the pie or custards in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes. The filling should be set but still slightly jiggly in the center.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let the pie or custards cool to room temperature.

Step 9

Transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours (or overnight) before serving.

Step 10

Serve the pie sliced or enjoy the custards directly from their ramekins. Optionally, top with whipped coconut cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
