One of my boyfriend’s co-workers mentioned that he remembered seeing vegan pumpkin pies at Madison Market ^[1] last Thanksgiving, so I walked over there this morning to find out if they were available again this year — and indeed they were. Madison Market gets the pies from Flying Apron ^[2], a small mostly vegan, mostly organic bakery in the U District. Although the pie is beautiful, I’m still a little dubious about how it’s going to taste (especially since it’s also wheat free). I’ve tried making vegan versions of pumpkin pie before and they have always been a disappointment, but maybe Flying Apron knows something that I don’t. I’ll report back once we’ve tried the pie.
