Recipe: Vegan Tofu Pumpkin Pie
I got this recipe from a vegan magazine about 10 years ago, and over the years I have made small changes according to taste. One year I accidentally used the premixed pumpkin in a can instead of the plain pumpkin and it still turned out really good. I rarely measure the spices anymore and I normally sprinkle some on the top before it's baked to give the pie a "browner" look when finished. Enjoy!
Ingredients:- 16 oz can pumpkin
- 1 TSP Cinnamon
- 1/2 TSP Ginger
- 1/4 TSP Nutmeg
- 1/2 TSP Salt
- 1/4 CUP Canola Oil
- 1 TSP Vanilla
- 1 CUP Brown Sugar
- 1 TBS Molasses
- 3/4 LB Soft Tofu
- 1 Unbaked Pie Shell
Vegan: In blender mill all except tofu until well blended. Break tofu in to chunks and add to blender slowly until well mixed. Pour filling in to pie shell. Bake for one at 350 degrees. Chill over night.

Yum. thanks for posting. I have an amazing non-tofu vegan pumpkin pie recipe thats also amazing. If you cant have soy and want the recipe message me.
I've made a pie almost like this and it really is good! The only thing I do differently is cut back on the sugar and add more molasses b/c I love the darker taste of black strap molasses. Thx for the post!
@macphoto@xanga - i would love the non-tofu one. I have no problem with tofu, but many omnis in my life do =D
This looks wonderful, not having pumpkin pie this year was one of my biggest upsets during the holiday. I could sit down and eat a pumpkin pie whole (which I would have too as my fiance doesn't eat it and it's just him and I now) I think I will make tarts out of this to keep me portion controlled. Thanks!
@karmavore - I serve this to omnis all the time. I dont tell them its vegan. they dont know, they just rave on its the best pie. I'll send you the recipe when I get home from work.
How is this vegan with the whipped cream on top? And it's possible that the pre-baked pie shell may not be vegan either!
GENIUS!
@nickiesneon@xanga - well u can easily skip ur cream and bake ur own crust to be sure it's vegan
Can you email me the non-tofu recipe - thanks

I love pumpkin pie. I'm sure this one would stand up to the others I've had.

oh ya how long should the pie be in the oven for baking?
@nooitzben@xanga - I just noticed that it says "Bake for one at 350 degrees"...it should be an hour
Yum, I'm TOTALLY Gonna Make This.
@nickiesneon@xanga - It's probably vegan "cream" and there is such a thing as pre-baked vegan pie crust.
totally had one yesterday, so good
I made this and no one had a clue that it contained tofu. -vegan ninja-
