  • Total Time: 4 hours 10 minutes
  • Yield: 9 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups Lotus Biscoff cookies, crushed
  • ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 can (15 oz) pure pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • ¾ cup organic maple syrup
  • ½ cup cornstarch or arrowroot powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Optional: Vegan whipped cream for topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Lotus Biscoff crust: pulse cookies until fine crumbs, then mix with melted coconut oil. Press firmly into a lined 9×9-inch baking pan and chill for 15 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, coconut milk, and maple syrup. Add cornstarch, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Mix until smooth.
  3. Pour filling over the crust, spread evenly. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 45-50 minutes until edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Allow to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Serve chilled, with vegan whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.

Notes

  • Chill the bars thoroughly for best texture and flavor.
  • For gluten-free version, substitute cookies with gluten-free alternatives.
  • Can be frozen: wrap tightly and store in the freezer up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
