vegan pear pie

This Chai Spice Vegan Pear Pie combines the best of both worlds: chai spices with caramelized pears, all packed into a flakey, buttery vegan pie crust. 

Chai Spice Vegan Pear Pie

all purpose flour

salt

vegan butter (cold)

maple syrup

almond milk

water

pears (chopped)

coconut oil

cane sugar

cinnamon

tsp ground ginger

tsp all spice

nutmeg

cloves

cardamom

Pulse

Start by making the crust. I like to use my food processor for this because it&#039;s easier/quicker than using my hands, but you have to do it in 2 batches. Start by adding 1.5 cups flour and 1/2 tsp salt to your food processor. Then, with the motor running, add 1/2 cup butter in through the top, followed by 2 tbsp syrup, 2 tbsp milk and 4 tbsp ice water.

Remove

At this point, the dough should be in one ball; remove it and set it aside, then repeat the exact same process with the remaining crust ingredients.

Refrigerate

Once the dough is completely made, divide it into 2 separate balls, one slightly larger than the other. Wrap them in plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

make the crust:

Preheat

Once the time is up, preheat the oven to 400°.

Sauté

Next, make the filling: heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped pears, then sprinkle the sugar and spices over top. Cook the pears for 5-8 minutes, or until they&#039;re soft but not mushy; remove skillet from the heat.

make the filling:

Roll

Remove dough from the refrigerator. Flour a work surface, then roll out the larger ball of dough and carefully transfer it to your greased pie pan. Crimp the edges as you normally would, then pour the pear filling into the pie crust. Then, roll out the second ball of dough to form the top crust. Brush crust with melted butter or coconut oil, and sprinkle with a little bit of cane sugar.

Bake

Place pie in the oven and bake for 15 minutes; then reduce heat to 375° and bake pie for 40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Cool

Transfer pie to a cooling rack and allow it to cool for 1 hour; you want the pie to be slightly warm or at room temperature before cutting. Serve with vanilla ice cream and enjoy!
