I use this recipe:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Blend in blender:

2 cups pumpkin puree (1 can)
1 cup soymilk
3/4 cup brown sugar
3-4 tbsp cornstartch
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp (of each) ginger, nutmeg, salt
1/4 tsp all spice

Pour into crust (I either use a premade graham crust or make my own with EB and vegan graham crackers)
Bake 60 mins
Refridgerate overnight

This one is awesome as well (it's a pumpkin cheesecake):

you can easily substitute eggs in most recipes, pumpkin pie being one of them
i use this site as a guide (you'll have to scroll down a bit):

Instead of 1 egg in baking, you can use...

  • 1 T Flax seeds ground with 3 T water
  • 1 Tablespoon (chick pea) or soya flour and 1 T water
  • 1 T arrowroot, 1 T soy flour and 2 T water
  • 2 T Cornstarch
  • 2 T Potato starch (Instant mash potatoes)
  • 2 Tbsp flour, 1/2 Tbsp shortening, 1/2 tsp baking powder and
    2 tsp water
  • 1/4 cup soft tofu blended with the liquid portion of the recipe
  • 1/2 large banana, mashed
  • 2 Heaping t Soy powder + 2 T water
  • 1/4 cup apple sauce (in sweet recipes)

I never thought of corn starch as a binding agent. That's very interesting. My only thing is, that I am trying to eliminate processed starches/sugars. Of course, if I want to eliminate animal products, I may have to make some concessions too. Thanks all for your replies.

I made a pumpkin pie from the book the joy of vegan baking and it was perfect
was tofu, pumpkin, brown sugar and syrup w/ spices and I made a pecan crust too cuz I looked at the ingredients for pre-made crusts in stores and it was all just so gross w/ hydrogenated oils and processed ingredients
