This kabocha honey spiced pie is delicious and reminiscent of a traditional pumpkin pie but with it’s own flare. Kabocha squash is a Japanese winter squash that tastes like a cross between a butternut squash, an acorn squash and a pumpkin.

This recipe uses honey as the primary sweetener so it gives it a deep and naturally sweet flavor. There is an additional small amount of sugar in this recipe to give the pie a sweet pop and bring out all of the flavors. If you want a refined sugar free pie, then you can sub that out for more honey.

This pie can easily be made dairy free by using a dairy free milk in the pie filling if desired.
