Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

Melt the butter in a small pot.
Once it's completely melted, transfer to a small mixing bowl and add the molasses and vanilla extract.
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry.

Place the dough in a 9 inch pie dish and smooth out, over the dish, and bake for 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.
In a medium size pot, add the gelatin, maple syrup, sea salt, cinnamon sticks, nutmeg, and all spice.
Then add the pumpkin puree, egg yolks, and coconut cream.
Stir until well combined and smooth.
Discard the cinnamon sticks.
