Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made vegan pie crust
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Remove the pre-made vegan pie crust from its packaging and set aside at room temperature to ensure it's ready for filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, coconut cream, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer or whisk to blend until the mixture becomes smooth and completely integrated, with no visible lumps.
- Ensure the mixture is creamy and well-combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl to incorporate all ingredients thoroughly.
- Pour the peanut butter mixture into the pre-made vegan pie crust, using a spatula to spread it evenly and create a smooth top surface.
- If desired, sprinkle vegan chocolate chips over the top of the pie for additional texture and flavor.
- Place the pie in the refrigerator and chill for at least 3-4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the filling to set completely and develop a firm, creamy consistency.
- Before serving, remove the pie from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to soften slightly.
- Slice into 8 equal portions and serve chilled. Optional: Garnish with additional chocolate chips or a drizzle of melted vegan chocolate.
Tips
- Room Temperature Magic: Let your ingredients sit at room temperature before mixing to ensure a smoother, more homogeneous filling.
- Whip It Good: Use an electric mixer for the best texture, ensuring no lumps remain in your peanut butter mixture.
- Chill Factor: Patience is key! Letting the pie set overnight will give you the most perfect, firm consistency.
- Chocolate Lover's Hack: If you're adding chocolate chips, try freezing them briefly before sprinkling to prevent them from sinking into the filling.
- Serving Tip: Let the pie sit for 10-15 minutes before serving to achieve the ideal creamy texture.
- Storage Secret: This pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, making it a perfect make-ahead dessert.Pro tip: For an extra luxurious touch, drizzle some melted vegan chocolate or sprinkle some crushed peanuts on top before serving!
