Glad you have been enjoying it. Thanks so much for the feedback on the xylitol and stevia. These are two sweeteners I've been experimenting with lately, but I'm still a newbie, so it's great to know what has worked! That’s so awesome Adelaide! Glad you have been enjoying it.

This recipe is just AMAZING!!! I have made it 5 times in the last year! It's past New Year's, but, I don't care. This pie is SOOO good and soo guiltless (I use xylitol sweetener). I also tried stevia. The taste was great, but it did cause the pie to pull away from the crust. Thank you thank you! :) I just want to say, “Thank you” AGAIN! This recipe is just AMAZING!!!

I've been bummed out for a long time about all the pre-made pumpkin pies at the grocery store, since they always have milk even when the fruit ones don't. I made this for Thanksgiving and it was perfect! Tasted just like the ones with milk I used to be able to eat, and my husband loved it too. I substituted stevia for the white sugar, and it worked perfectly. Next time I'll try substituting it for all the sugar to see how that goes. Now I just have to find a good one with soy for family gatherings, since my sister-in-law is allergic to coconut, and my niece might be too. Thank again!!! Thank you so much for this recipe!

And shared it with Kim who commented above! I too tweaked it some and subbed 3/4 cup coconut crystals for the white and brown sugar and used 3 large eggs in mine. so wonderful to have dairy free without the soy since I can't have either!!

And she loved it, as did everyone else who ate it. I tweaked it just a bit by adding an extra egg white and about a 1/2 TBS of corn starch. The texture was absolutely identical to traditional pumpkin pie. Can not wait to make this again (and again, and again, and again...)!!!

If so, any baking oil in general should work as they all have similar profiles (14g of fat per Tablespoon). It may just cause slight variation in flavor, which could always be good, depending on the flavor you like! I would recommend an extra-light or light olive oil though, extra-virgin olive oil can have a strong, grassy flavor that doesn't always go with delicate baked goods.

It should work okay, but won't be as rich and may not thicken as well. That said, I've seen many recipes for pumpkin pie that use soymilk, and I have successfully made this recipe with both full fat and lite coconut milk.
