Gluten Free Vegan Bourbon Pumpkin Pie

I've been posting a lot of pumpkin recipes lately, I know, but I just can't help it! From pies and tarts to soups, salads and stuffing, pumpkins are easily my favorite squash and such an incredibly versatile food that I am convinced they should be in everything. Ever. 
I'll tell you a secret: I'm not a vegan. Gluten free, yes. But vegan? Not me, no sirree! Over the years, the growing number of roommates/friends/family members who have adopted a vegan lifestyle has prompted me to give it serious thought. I look at vegan baking as a puzzle -- kind of like a Rubik's cube. I know what the end result is, but getting there means investigating ingredients and techniques that I would have otherwise never known about! So this holiday season, arm yourself with an array of allergy friendly (gluten free + vegan aka milk / dairy free and eggless!) dessert recipes to astound your family and friends.
