Ingredients
  

For the Pumpkin Spice Cream
  • 1 cup raw cashews (soaked for 4 hours) Opt for high-quality organic cashews.
  • 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for a creamier texture) A thicker coconut milk provides a richer cream.
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree Canned or homemade pumpkin puree works.
  • ½ cup maple syrup (or agave for a lighter option) Adjust sweetness to your liking.
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin spice blend (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger) You can adjust the spice blend according to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Use pure vanilla extract for better flavor.
For Assembly
  • 1 package vegan ladyfinger cookies (or any vegan sponge cake) Can substitute with your favorite gluten-free sponge cake.
  • 1 cup strong brewed coffee (cooled) Let the coffee reach room temperature before using.
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder (for dusting) This enhances the presentation.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Drain and rinse the soaked cashews.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine soaked cashews, coconut milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin spice blend, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Coffee Preparation
  1. Prepare 1 cup of strong brewed coffee and let it cool to room temperature.
Assembly
  1. Quickly dip each vegan ladyfinger into the coffee, making sure they soak up the liquid without becoming too soggy.
  2. In a rectangular dish, place a layer of soaked ladyfingers at the bottom and spread half of the pumpkin spice cream over the ladyfingers.
  3. Repeat the process by layering more soaked ladyfingers and topping with the remaining pumpkin spice cream.
  4. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best flavor and texture.
  5. Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder, slice, plate, and enjoy!

Notes

Opt for high-quality organic ingredients whenever possible for the best flavor. Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze individual servings for a quick treat.
