Equipment

  • blender

Ingredients

  • 15 oz Pumpkin Pie Mix organic
  • 1 ½ cups cashews raw

Pie Crust

  • 1 whole pie crust premade - or DIY

Optional Garnish

  • ½ cup cashews

Instructions

The Day Before

  • A day before you want to make your pie, you will need to soak your cashews. Add them to a large mixing bowl and fill bowl with water. Add a pinch of salt to the water - optional. Cover and soak in the fridge overnight.

Day of

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Drain and rinse the soaked cashews. They should be softened and plumped up quite a bit. Add the drained cashews to your blender. Note: When soaked, you should have just under two cups of soaked cashews.
  • Add the pumpkin pie mix to the blender.
  • Blend from low to high until smooth. This will take a good 5-7 minutes of stopping the blender, scraping down the sides and starting again. When your filling mixture is silky and smooth, pour it into your pie crust.
  • Add the optional cashew garnish around the edges of the pie. Then place the pie in the oven.
  • Bake at 425 degrees for ten minutes, then reduce heat to 325 and bake for an additional 30-40 minutes. You want the crust edges to turn golden brown but not burn. The top of the pie should look golden as well.
  • Remove pie and cool for at least a half hour before serving. Store leftovers, covered, in the fridge.

Notes

Troubleshooting + Notes:
Chunky Blend: If you are having trouble blending, your cashews may not have soaked for long enough. Raw cashews can vary in driness, so some may need a longer soak. You can add in a splash or two of non-dairy milk to your blend to thin things out.
Pie Crust: If you want to DIY your crust, here is a video and recipe.
Sweetness: If you really want a sharp sweetness to your pie, you can add 3 tablespoon maple syrup to your blend. Another option would be to add in a small honeycrisp appl to your blend.
