Vegan Coconut Cream Pie

What is vegan coconut cream pie?

A vegan coconut cream pie is a delicious, creamy, and decadent dessert that is made with 100% vegan ingredients. This pie uses non-dairy ingredients, especially coconut, to bring in the coconut’s sweet and subtle tropical flavor. The main components of this pie include:

  • The crust: The pie crust is an essential component as it sets the base for this dessert. You can go for a store-bought pie crust dough or make one from scratch. Whatever you plan to do, make sure the pie crust has the right texture. Once baked, it should perfectly hold shape.
  • The filling: The next main component is the filling. This recipe uses coconut cream filling made from coconut cream coconut pulp, maple syrup, organic coconut sugar, cashews, and silken tofu. This filing is creamy, rich, and has a perfect consistency.
  • The topping: Lastly, you can top this pie with coconut whipped cream and toasted coconut flakes. The golden color of the toasted flakes makes the pie visually appealing.
