Vegan Strawberry Cream Pie Recipe
Report
Strawberries and cream form a winning duo: the natural burst of sweetness from the strawberries is hosted in a rich and creamy base. This rendition is a vegan strawberry cream pie that uses cashews instead of whipping cream for a luscious, velvety texture and healthier bite. Coconut adds a subtly sweet, tropical note, with a squeeze of lime juice adding a fresh citrus - it's creamy-delicious, but also the easiest pie you'll ever whip up!

Ingredients
Coconut Crust
- 2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- ¼ cup coconut sugar can sub granulated sugar
- 1 chia egg see notes
Strawberry Filling
- 1 ½ cups raw cashews soaked for 1-24 hours (see notes)
- 1 lb. fresh strawberries tops cut off
- ½ cup coconut oil softened
- ¼ - ½ cup coconut sugar can sub granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- Juice from ½ lime
Toppings
- Coconut whipped cream
- sliced strawberries
Instructions
- Grease a 9" pie pan with a little coconut oil. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Add the coconut, coconut oil, sugar, and chia egg to your food processor. Process on high for 1 minute.
- Transfer the coconut mix to the greased pie pan and press into the bottom and up the sides. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is light brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
- Place the cashews, strawberries, coconut oil, ¼ cup sugar, sea salt, and lime juice in your high-powered blender or food processor and blend on high until creamy and smooth. Taste and add more sugar if you'd like it sweeter.
- Pour the pie filling into the pie and smooth the top. Place the pie into your fridge, uncovered, and let it set for at least 6 hours. If you would like a firmer filling, freeze the pie for 2-3 hours.
- Serve the pie with some coconut whipped cream and fresh sliced strawberries over the top.
Notes
- Note: the prep/cook time does not include the 6 hours that you'll need to let the pie set after you make it.
- To make a chia egg, mix one tablespoon ground chia seeds or flax seeds with three tablespoons of water. Let it sit for 15 minutes then use it in the recipe.
- A high-powered blender works the best to make the cashews super creamy. If you don't have one, soak the cashews for at least 4 hours.
