Here is how you make Healthy Whole Wheat, Flaxseed, and Coconut Milk Pumpkin Pie:

FIRST -- if you are making this pie using fresh pumpkin, prep your pumpkin first. (If you are using canned pumpkin (shame on you!), skip this step) ;)1) Pre-heat the oven to 425*F2) Wash the pumpkin, cut it in half, remove the seeds (and save for roasting), and cut off the stem (which you can put in the composter, by the way).3) Place both pumpkin halves face-down in a large baking dish and add in water until the dish has about 1/4-inch layer of water in it. Cover with tin foil and put in the oven. Bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender and the skin peels off (identical to how you might bake an acorn squash). 4) Remove pumpkin and set aside to cool off.While pumpkin is cooking, Make the pie crust...1) Mix all the dry ingrediets together. You can slightly sweeten the mixture with stevia and add some cinnamon and salt, if you prefer.2) Next, add the coconut oil 1 tbsp at a time and use your fingers to pinch it into the dough.3) Next, add the water 1 tbsp at a time until you can mold it into one ball of dough with uniform consistency without it being too sticky. As a word of caution, I rarely use the full 1/2 cup, usually I use more like 1/3 of it.3) Lightly dust a cutting board with flour and knead the dough about 5 times. Then roll the dough out until it is about 10" diameter. I prefer to use my hands instead of a rolling pin.4) lay into a 9-inch pie pan, brush the with egg white mixture (particularly the edges that will be exposed during baking!) , and place in the fridge.Now make the pie filling...1) Make sure the oven is peheated still to 425*F2) Peel the skin off of your pumpkin (skin can be composted) and puree either using a blender, a food processor, or a hand-masher (which I prefer). Transfer pumpkin to blender and add in, one at at time, your coconut milk, your yogurt, your honey and all your spices. You can also add in a quarter cup of raisins for extra flavor.3) Lightly beat your egg whites in a separate bowl and then add to the blender. Mix the whole concoction together until uniform and smooth. If it is runny, fear not! The eggs will turn the pie into a solid while baking.Pour the mixture into the pie pan and bake for 15 minutes @ 425*F on bottom rack. Then reduce heat to 350*F, transfer pie to middle rack, and cook for an additional 45 minutes or until the pie is a golden brown.Serving Size:?Makes one 9-inch pie
