Introduction
Pumpkin pie has to be one of my absolute favorite desserts and yet somehow it’s one that I don’t often think to make when the holidays aren’t near. Canned pumpkin, while not as amazing as fresh, is available in grocery stores all year-round, so you can get a pumpkin pie fix anytime!

Directions
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
Set a pot of water on to boil (enough water to fill the baking pan as directed below).
Combine pumpkin and all spices in one bowl.
In a smaller bowl, beat the eggs lightly then whisk in the maple syrup, vanilla and coconut milk.
Whisk the egg mixture into the pumpkin mixture until well combined.
Pour the custard into 6- 1/2 cup ramekins. Place the ramekins in a baking pan and add enough boiling water to the dish to come up 2″ high around the ramekins. Carefully place in the oven and bake for 60 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center of the custard comes out clean. (I’m pretty sure mine took a bit longer to bake, but it may be my oven!)
