In reply to Taylor B. Hi Taylor, apologies that I didn't see your question earlier - I put them in the middle rack. Let me know how the coconut one turned out!

My pie is in the oven and is smelling SO good. I’m baking in higher altitudes in Colorado and so far it is taking a little closer to 55 mins to set. Looks delicious – can’t wait to have a slice. Thank you for the awesome recipe!!

Made this for thanksgiving and this literally the BEST pumpkin pie I’ve ever tasted. I substituted the brown sugar in the filling with maple syrup and WOW! It tasted so real and fresh. The crust was really good and different- you can always do a traditional crust too. Saving this recipe!!!

Hey Jeanine, happy thanksgiving. I’m making this recipe again this year and just put 2 versions in the oven. One with coconut flour (doubled butter) because SIL is off grains right now and one the regular way. It was amazing last year. Can’t wait to try them again. Gotta try both!

QUICK QUESTION: do you put pies in the top rack or the middle rack generally?

I also had a hard time getting the pie to set. The first time, I dumped in all of the cashew cream! I didn’t realize it until I noticed it wouldn’t set. I tried again, meticulously measuring everything. I had the same problem. At this point, I don’t know if I’ll serve it or not. After reading your comment concerning a proper egg-liquid ratio, I’m thinking that maybe 1 cup of cashew cream might be better than 1.5 cups.

In reply to Andrea. Hi Andrea, yes, it should be done right at the time that's listed. Other recipes may be using a flour-based crust that takes longer to bake through.

Waiting for it to come out of the oven now…usually pumpkin pies bake 45 minutes. Is 30-40 minutes enough time?I am watching it, but as I am new to pie-baking, I don’t trust myself to know when it is done… my rating is based on ease and how it smells and how the crust tastes…yum! Also: What to do with the leftover cashew cream?

Jeanine, is there a substitute for the pecans in the crust? My nephew is allergic to all nuts.

???Maybe I can’t make this pumpkin pie for our Thanksgiving?

Fingers crossed I can substitute something for the pecans.
