I just made the filling, and not the dried fruit toppings. This was a wonderful alternative to the often too-sweet, too-spicy traditional pumpkin pie. The flavor is delicate and creamy, and very satisfying. I made a gingersnap crust with MI-DEL gluten-free gingersnaps, and it was a perfect complement to the pumpkin and coconut milk. This one goes in my saved recipes folder!

WOW! I say again WOW! I love pumpkn pie (it's probably my favorite) but the coconut milk really makes this special. The apricots were a wonderful surprise. I added a few sliced almonds to the top and a glorious dollop of whipped cream...just heavenly! And easy1 I'm doing another one for Thanksgiving.

Made for PAC, Spring 07 ~ I thought I'd found the very best pumpkin pie in my double-layered pie, but this one is truly & wonderfully decadent! Lordy, with coconut & apricot & chocolate & pumpkin, about the only thing lacking is orange! And, I couldn't help myself [I'd say the devil made me do it, but he get credit for way, way too much stuff!], so I added a few very thin curls of orange zest on top! Anyway, thanks to one of my adopted 'kids,' I now have a great, new pumpkin pie recipe on file!
