vegan strawberry pie

This Vegan Strawberry Mousse Pie is perfectly creamy, slightly tart, sweet and altogether a delicious summer dessert. The no-bake crust is gluten free and made with a mixture of nuts, coconut and dates.

Vegan Strawberry Mousse Pie

raw, unsalted almonds

coconut flakes

hemp seeds

medjool dates, pitted and halved

almond butter

coconut oil

cinnamon

tsp vanilla extract

tsp salt

raw, unsalted cashews,

oz vegan cream cheese

raspberries

strawberries

vegan plain yogurt

maple syrup

tbsp lemon juice

lemon

salt

For topping: fresh berries, coconut flakes

In a food processor, pulse almonds, coconut flakes, hemp seeds, cinnamon, and salt until crumbly.

Add dates, almond butter, coconut oil, and vanilla and pulse until crust mixture comes together when pinched between your fingers. 

Press firmly in even layer into an 8-10 inch tart pan. Freeze for 15-20 minutes while you make the filling. 

Add all ingredients to blender and blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to run through the blend cycle depending on your blender. 

Pour filling over crust and spread into an even layer. 

Freeze for at least 4 hours, until solid. Top with fresh berries and coconut. 

Remove from freezer 10-15 minutes before serving, then slice and enjoy.

Crust

This no-oil, no-bake crust can be a little difficult to get out of the pan, so consider lightly oiling the pie pan first. Dusting the pan with a sprinkling of crushed nuts may also help keep the pie from sticking.

No-Bake Vegan Strawberry Pie

raw cashews

dates

old fashioned rolled oats

apple juice

Morinu organic firm silken tofu

medjool dates (pitted and chopped)

lemon juice

chia seeds (ground

lemon rind

vanilla bean ((or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract))

agar powder ((or 2 tablespoons agar flakes))

stevia, erythritol, or other sweetener to taste

strawberries (stemmed and sliced)

Before You Begin: Place the cashews in a small bowl and add water to cover them by about 1 inch. Set aside to soak for at least 2 hours or in the refrigerator overnight.

Crust: Place the 8 chopped dates into a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Add the oats and process until crumbly. With the machine running, add 2 tablespoons of apple juice. Continue to process until mixture begins to adhere together. If necessary, add more juice a teaspoon at a time, but be careful not to add too much. You want it to be sticky but not wet. Press into the bottom of an 8-inch pie pan and up the sides about 1 inch. Set aside.

Filling: Drain the cashews and place them in the blender (a Vitamix or other high-speed blender works best, but others should be able to do a good job). Add the tofu, 2 dates, lemon juice, chia seeds, and lemon rind. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and use a spoon to scrape out the seeds inside; add them to the blender. Blend on high speed until completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides to make sure all ingredients are incorporated.

Taste the filling mixture and add sweetener to taste. (I increased the lemon flavor by using lemon-flavored stevia.) Leave the mixture in the blender as you continue with the next step.

The next steps require you to work quickly. Heat the 1/2 cup of apple juice in a small sauce pan. As it’s heating, sprinkle it with the agar powder. Stir and heat until agar dissolves and juice begins to boil. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute after boiling. Quickly, add the agar mixture to the contents of the blender. Put the top on the blender and blend at high speed until well-blended. Scrape down the sides and blend again briefly. Pour into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate until chilled and set.

Top with sliced strawberries before serving.

I made this and found it sooooooo tasty. Followed the recipe for the crust. Added a few pecans to  it to make it sturdier, but non the less it just got really soggy.  Would you think this is normal? It still tasted amazing!!! I added a little cinnamon. But would def make it again!! Thanks Susan. You're soooooo intelligent with these recipes and combinations!!!  Appreciation!
