Ingredients

·         1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut (*see recipe notes) (80 g)
·         2 chia eggs or flax eggs (*see recipe notes)
·         3 tbsp maple syrup (or any other liquid sweetener) (60 g)

Cream Layer:                    

·         One 12.3 oz package silken tofu firm (*read the blog post for an alternative (350 g)
·         1/4 cup nut/seed butter of choice (*see recipe notes) (60 g)
·         1/4 cup maple syrup (or any other liquid sweetener) (80 g)
·         1/3 cup lime juice (from key limes or regular limes) (80 ml)
·         3 tbsp cornstarch (25 g)

Instructions

Crust

1.            To make the crust, put the shredded unsweetened coconut into an electric spice/coffee grinder (or blender or food processor) and mix. Repeat this step with the oats. Add the other two ingredients and mix until the dough sticks together. It should have the texture of shortcut pastry. Press the crust evenly into the bottom of a greased 8-inch (20 cm) pie pan or springform and about 2 inches (5 cm) up the sides.

Cream layer

1.            For the cream layer: Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender (or food processor) until smooth and creamy. Pour the cream onto the crust.
2.    Bake in the oven for about 35 minutes at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Depending on your oven it might take 5 minutes less or more. I have a gas oven and baked it for 35 minutes.
3.    Turn off the oven and let the pie cool completely at room temperature (or in the fridge) to set.Decorate with whipped coconut cream or vegan marshmallow fluff made from aquafaba (read the blog post to find out how I made it). Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
