Vegan Chocolate Pie

This chocolate pie is to-die for! Your guests would never know that the protein content is much higher than your typical cream- or egg-based pie because of the secret ingredient…silken tofu! Added bonus: a creamy, chocolate-y pie with less fat.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup All purpose flour
  • 1 cup crushed graham cracker crumbs
  • ¾ cup vegan butter (or solid coconut oil)
  • 2 x 300 g packages of silken tofu

  • ½ cup chocolate almond milk
  • ½ cup almond butter
  • ½ cup thawed or fresh cherries

Equipment:

  • 1 greased pie plate or spring-form pan
  • food processor

Instructions

  1. Crust: Mix flour and graham crumbs in a medium bowl. With a pastry knife or large fork, cut butter or coconut oil into mixture until oatmeal-like texture achieved.  Press down evenly into a greased pie plate or spring-form pan.
  2. Filling: Thoroughly mix all ingredients except for flour, graham crumbs, butter and cherries. Spread filling mixture over crust.
  3. Chill in the fridge for 12-24 hours or overnight.
