Nutty Pie Crust recipe from Paleo Comfort Foods:
1 Cup Almond flour
1/2 Cup chopped pecans
Pinch of salt
1/4 Cup pasture butter or ghee
2 Tbsp raw honey
1 tsp vanilla
Mix well and press thinly and evenly into an 8-9 inch tart pan. Pre-bake to a light golden brown colour before filling and baking.
---------------------------------
Filling - adapted from a Martha Stewart recipe:
3 large eggs plus 1 large egg yolk
3/4 cup full fat coconut milk
1 1/2 tablespoons sweet potato flour or arrowroot starch
1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 tin (15 ounces) pumpkin puree
1/4 - 1/2 cup pure maple syrup (dark if possible)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350F. Combine flour, salt, and spices. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, maple syrup, vanilla, eggs, and coconut milk. Whisk in flour mixture.
Pour into pre-baked pie crust (for pie) or ramekins (for custards) and bake until the middle is set - around 50 minutes for pie or 35 minutes for ramekins. If needed, shield the nutty pie crust edges with foil strips if they are getting too browned.
