Silken Tofu Pumpkin Pie Filling

12 oz Mori-Nu Slken Tofu, Extra Firm

15 oz Pumpkin Puree

2 tbsp Soybean Oil

2 tbsp Dark Molasses

¾ cup Granulated Sugar

2 tsp Ground Cinnamon

1 tsp Ground Ginger

½ tsp Ground Nutmeg

½ tsp Salt

1 tsp Vanilla Extract

1 9-inch unbaked pie crust or brown sugar-pecan crust

1 pinch Ground Cloves

Brown Sugar-Pecan Crust

3 cups Pecan Halves

6 tbsp Light Brown Sugar

1 tsp Ground Cinnamon

½ tsp Kosher Salt

6 tbsp Butter or Non-Dairy Butter

Place all pie filling ingredients in a blender and blend until mixed and smooth.

Pour into unbaked pastry crust or prepared Brown Sugar-Pecan Crust (see directions below) and bake for 50 to 60 minutes until filling is puffed around the edges. The pie filling will still be a bit jiggly in the middle.

Cool and then cover and chill for several hours before serving.

Brown Sugar - Pecan Crust

Place 3 cups pecan halves, 6 tablespoons light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt in a food processor. Process until pecans are coarsely chopped.

Add in 6 tablespoons butter or non-dairy butter and pulse until mixture is finely ground and holds together when pinched. Set 1/4 cup of mixture aside.

Press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch deep dish pie plate.

Bake 8 to 10 minutes at 350 degrees until lightly browned and fragrant. Set aside until ready to fill.

Sprinkle the reserved 1/4 cup of mixture over the pie when it has about 10 minutes left to bake.
