Instructions
For the Crust:
Preheat oven to 350℉. Fill cupcake tin with cupcake liners. Set aside.
In a food processor, blend the graham crackers into a fine crumb.
Combine the crumbled graham crackers, cane sugar and melted vegan butter into a medium bowl. Stir until completely incorporated.
Fill each cupcake liner with approx 1/4 C of graham cracker mixture. Use a small glass cup or rolling pin to tamp crust down and around the sides of each cupcake cup.
Bake for 8 minutes. Set aside to cool. Meanwhile, prepare the filling.
For the Pumpkin Pie filling:
In a large bowl or blender combine all of the filling ingredients at once.
Make sure to whisk everything very well, until there are no lumps.
Using a 2 oz scoop or 1/4 C fill each crust with pumpkin pie filling. Fill each crust to the very top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the edges of the filling just start to set.
Cool at room temp for about 15 min. Then transfer pies to the fridge to continue to cool for about 1 hr to set up.
For the Whipped Cream:
In a mixing bowl combine the vegan heavy whipping cream or coconut cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
With the whisk attachment whip on high. This should only take a couple of minutes. If it's looking too soft try adding more powdered sugar, one TBS at a time.
Dollop onto the mini pumpkin pies and dust with cinnamon for decoration. Serve and enjoy!
Keep mini pies chilled in a container in the fridge for 3-5 days. Add whipped cream to serve and keep chilled in a separate container.
