Description

This vegan peanut butter chocolate pie is rich & velvety. The perfect treat for a special occasion or to enjoy when you want a sweet fix.


Ingredients

Base:

  • 2 cups almond meal
  • 2 tablespoons cacao powder
  • 1 flax egg
  • ½ cup vegan butter (room temperature)
  • 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
  • Pinch of salt

Filling:

  • ½ cup peanut butter (plain and unsweetened)
  • 10 medjool dates, pitted
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup almond milk
  • Pinch of salt

Topping:

  • ¾ cup vegan dark chocolate chips
  • ⅓ cup almond milk

Instructions

  1. For the base: Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celcius (355 degrees Fahrenheit).
  2. Place all crust ingredients into a food processor and pulse until it forms a dough.
  3. Place unbleached parchment paper on the bottom and coming up the sides of your 8-inch pie dish.
  4. Push down the base evenly making sure to get it into the dips of the sides of the dish.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes and then remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before placing in the freezer carefully to completely cool for around 30 minutes.
  6. For the filling: In the meantime, place all filling ingredients in the food processor and blend well until you reach a nice thick and fairly smooth consistency. I don’t mind the peanut butter chunks (if using crunchy). Set aside.
  7. For the topping: Over a double boiler, melt the chocolate and milk, stirring occasionally to make sure it combines well and melts evenly. Remove from heat and set aside.
  8. Once the base has completely cooled, remove from freezer and scoop the filling mixture onto the base. Smooth over nice and even as it’s a little thicker.
  9. Pour over the chocolate and tap a few times to remove any air bubbles.
  10. Place in fridge to set for around 1-1.5 hours.
  11. Remove from dish and peel the baking paper off carefully.
  12. Cut into slices and serve.
