Gluten free honey pumpkin pie has all the great pumpkin flavor that you crave but without any refined sugars. Lightly sweetened and perfectly slice-able.
Gluten Free Honey Pumpkin Pie
No Thanksgiving is complete without Pumpkin Pie! I don't care who you are. You have to have it! (unless of course you do sweet potato pie instead.)
When I was a little girl I'd only eat the pumpkin pie filling, not the crust. Which was weird because when my mom was a kid she'd only eat the crust, not the filling. In fact she never liked pumpkin pie until after she married my dad. My dad's pie was different; he made it with honey. Growing up we always had my dad's pumpkin pie, so even now as an adult I still prefer pumpkin pie made with honey.
The honey adds another layer of flavors, instead of the filling just being "sweet" it has that light floral flavor that the honey lends.
And then you have the crust, my flaky gluten free pie crust to be exact. If you can do dairy, my all-butter crust is perfection! Tender, flaky, buttery goodness! Everything you want in a good pie crust.
I just feel better taking another slice of pie when it is sweetened with honey instead of sugar. Or eating a leftover slice for breakfast. Pumpkin is a squash, so that is healthy, eggs have protein, and honey isn't refined sugar.
This gluten free honey pumpkin pie is almost health food.
I actually did eat this pie for breakfast over the course of a few days. No regrets at all!
If you are looking for a maple-sweetened pumpkin pie I think you'll love my friend Megan's (Allergy-Free Alaska) Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Maple Pumpkin Pie. It looks perfect!
