Vegan Pumpkin Pie (gluten free, low carb)

Vegan Pumpkin Pie (gluten free, low carb)

Another low carb vegan treat pulling through! And this one is a smooth, delicious Vegan Pumpkin Pie. It was supposed to be a Christmas recipe because the hints of cinnamon and nutmeg just felt so cosy. But alas, I am too late. 

Don't let that stop you from making it though. It is super quick and easy, free of everything except yumminess: gluten, sugar, dairy... and it is really low in calories. And it's obvs high protein and packed with micronutrients and fiber. So actually just make it for breakfast tomorrow.
