FOR THE PIE CRUST
- 3.5 oz vegan vanilla cookies
- 0.25 cups dairy-free butter or coconut oil
FOR THE FILLING OF THE PIE
- 1.0 blocks firm tofu
- 1.0 large avocado
- .25 cups coconut oil
- .25 cups agave or other sweetener to taste
- 2.0 tbsp. plant-based milk
- .33333 cups lemon juice
- 2.0 tbsp. lemon zest
Preparation
- To prepare the crust, crush the cookies until you get a fine powder.
- In a medium bowl, mix the powdered cookies with the butter or coconut oil until you get a paste.
- Add this paste to a pie mold, and spread it over the entire surface. Compact it very well, until it is rigid. Freeze the crust while you prepare the filling.
- For the filling, blend all the ingredients except the lemon zest. It will probably take a little work because it is a pasty mixture, but be patient! To create a smooth, soft, and thick mixture without lumps, stop the blender suddenly and stir gently with a spoon.
- Add the lemon zest to the mixture, and stir. Pour the mixture over the frozen pie crust, and spread it over the entire surface. Freeze for 3 hours.
