It’s not fall until you behold the arresting waft of pumpkin pie blasting from your kitchen oven.
Last night Alyson and I altered the old family favorite with a few primal tweaks. This pumpkin pie is delicious… and it’s also gluten-free, grain-free, processed sugar-free, and primal-friendly.

Enjoy, folks. Let me know how it comes out for you.
Mmmm, this pie was so delicious with chocolate coconut ice cream, and just by itself. We ate it with dinner last night, and then again with breakfast this morning. The crust was buttery and flaky with just enough sweetness, and the goat milk did something magical to the filling. Its light, moist texture works perfectly with the delicious flavor of pumpkin and spices to put me in the Fall mood. I love discovering ways to indulge in things I love and still know I’m being good to my body. Can’t wait to have another piece.
Oops, I ate it all… Time to make another one.
Man, I just made this last night and it came out so good! Thanks Abel!
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it, Barry.
OMG this looks amazing. I’m going to try it!
Thanks Lisa – let us know how it comes out for you!
Can’t wait to try this recipe! Maybe you and Alyson can make it on Thanksgiving? We’re snowed in here, lost power for awhile, but power is on now. Would like to try the recipe with our friend’s fresh goat’s milk.
Yes! It’s a perfect Thanksgiving recipe. Also perfect when you’re snowed in.
