Low FODMAP Pumpkin Pie

What the world needs now is… pie, sweet pumpkin pie! So let’s go to our kitchens and bake this sweet and smooth dessert with homemade pumpkin puree and store-bought crust. Low FODMAP, gluten free and lactose free. Wish some things were as simple as this recipe…

As a low FODMAP food blogger there’s not much I can say about this pandemic or the US elections. The majority of my readers are from the US and wether I like it or not, it’s difficult to ignore what’s going on… the world is patiently waiting and I just hope things change, not just for us but for our kids as well. While we wait, there are some easy things we can do such as baking! It’s what I did yesterday, I baked my second low FODMAP pumpkin pie and I am quite happy to share it with you today!

When we want to bake a pumpkin pie, we normally buy canned pumpkin puree and make a pie crust. I propose to do the opposite, and here’s why:

Why store-bought crust instead of homemade pie crust?

If you’re on the low FODMAP diet you know that a good homemade gluten free and low FODMAP pie crust is not easy to make, so why not buy one? If you still prefer to make your own, check out my buttery pie crust recipe.

Why homemade pumpkin puree instead of canned pumpkin ?

The only pumpkin that is low FODMAP is japanese pumpkin (kabocha squash) and canned pumpkin is limited to 1/3 cup (2.64oz | 75g) per meal. So why not make our own pumpkin puree? This way we can eat a lot of pie, instead of only one slice! But if you prefer or you simply cannot find japanese pumpkin, you can use 15.8oz (450g) of canned pumpkin. Just make sure to limit the intake to one slice per meal (1/6 of the pie).

Why a rectangular shape?

Because I love it and since I bought this rectangular pie tart (affiliate link), I’ve been making my sweet and salty pies in it. It’s the case of this french tomato tart.

I hope you enjoy this sweet and smooth low FODMAP pumpkin pie recipe and that it can bring some love to your guts, hearts and souls.

Xo, Joana

    Hi there! I’m excited to try your recipe! We’re a little lacking in the GF pie crust options here in pandemic Hawaii, so I was going to use your quiche crust recipe. Is that recipe – as written – enough for this pie recipe? Or do I have to scale it up?

      Hi Didi! It’s enough to make the pumpkin pie. If you prefer, you can use white rice flour+cornstarch. It’s also a good combination. Xo, Joana
