Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, coconut milk, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
Add the eggs to the wet mixture, beating one at a time, and mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped walnuts evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice into 12 pieces and serve. Enjoy your dairy-free pumpkin slices!
