Vegan No Bake Pumpkin Pie takes 5 minutes to make and requires only 5 ingredients! It's thick, creamy, and full of flavor! You simply must try this recipe- it's my kiddo's favorite!
If you are looking for a recipe that's short on effort and big on flavor, this is it! As busy moms, we need recipes like this in our arsenal. Don't get me wrong, making a pie from scratch is very rewarding when time allows. Although, you know...life happens and sometimes we just need something fast and satisfying.
I got the idea for this no-bake vegan pumpkin pie from a recipe that I had long ago. I believe it was a Kraft recipe for a no-bake pumpkin pie that used vanilla jello pudding as its base. Did you know that vanilla jello pudding is vegan? Yep, and so are a few of their other flavors.
When I realized that jello pudding was vegan, I thought...hmmm, I bet I can make a vegan version of that old Kraft recipe, and that's how the no-bake vegan pumpkin pie was born. And let me tell you, it's SO EASY to make and may I add DELICIOUS. It's my kiddo's favorite!
Ingredients
No bake Vegan pumpkin pie requires only 5 ingredients (not including the crust): 2 small (3.4 oz) boxes of vanilla jello pudding, 1 cup pumpkin puree, So Delicious Coco Whip Topping, almond milk, and pumpkin pie spice.
For the crust you can grab a Keebler graham-ready crust (yes, they are vegan- YAY!) in a 6 oz size, or you could even do mini pies with the single-serve shells. Can't get any easier than that!
Substitutions
If you can't find Coco Whip Coconut Whipped topping, then you can easily make your own with a can of coconut milk. Click HERE for an easy recipe from Givemesomeoven.
Any plant milk will work in place of almond milk, and if you don't have pumpkin pie spice, then you can substitute a combination of cinnamon and nutmeg. I would do 1 teaspoon cinnamon and ¼ teaspoon nutmeg or a bit more to taste.
Putting your pie together
It's so easy to put together. Just put everything (minus the whipped topping) into a bowl and stir together until well incorporated. Then, fold in one cup of the whipped topping. Pour into your prepared pie crust and refrigerate for at least an hour.
Garnish with the remaining whipped topping. SO FAST! SO DELICIOUS!

This is genius! Anything that has just five ingredients is a win and this pie comes out wonderful.
Bailey says
All jello has gelatin in it! Gelatin is NOT vegan, it is crushed animal bones. Please do not feed this to vegans. This recipe should be updated to reflect this information, it is NOT a vegan recipe.
Crystal Yentzen says
Hi Bailey! You are correct in the fact that gelatin isn’t vegan. However, Jello pudding doesn’t contain gelatin. It's a mixture of cornstarch and sugar completely vegan. I checked with the company before posting this recipe. I do hope you try the recipe. I think you’ll love it! Have a great day!
