Great Key Lime Pie (Vegan, but You'd Never Guess It!) image

This pie is so rich and decadent it almost tastes more like a key lime cheesecake! I made it for a Caribbean-themed party without telling what was in it and everyone raved about it! I'm not even a vegan and I plan on making this one frequently. I got the recipe from VegWeb.

Categories     Pie

Time 20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (12 1/3 ounce) package mori-nu firm silken tofu (I use lite)
8 ounces soy cream cheese
1/2 cup key lime juice
2 teaspoons freshly grated lime rind
2 (4 ounce) packages mori-nu mates vanilla pudding mix (must be this brand, it's made to go with the tofu)
1 tablespoon liquid sweetener, to taste (I use honey but that's not vegan!)
1 (9 inch) baked pastry shells (I prefer graham) or 1 (9 inch) graham cracker crust (I prefer graham)

Steps:

  • Drain any excess water from the tofu.
  • Blend tofu and lime juice in a processor or blender until creamy and smooth.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients (except crust!), and blend again until smooth.
  • At this point, I had to transfer the mixture to a bowl and beat on high speed with an electric mixer, since it was too thick and stiff for my blender.
  • Pour the mixture into the crust and chill 2-3 hours or until firm.
  • This sets up very firm.
  • It also makes a great pudding or little tartlet filling for fancy desserts!
  • Note for those who try with other pudding mixes. Make sure your mix is Vegan. Commercial mixes can contain meat by products making them not Vegan or Vegetarian.

This pie was a big hit at my party! Everyone loved it, even the people who aren't vegan. The crust was perfectly graham crackery and the filling was creamy and tangy. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm a big fan of key lime pie, and this vegan version is just as good as the traditional kind. The crust is flaky and buttery, and the filling is creamy and tangy. I love the addition of the coconut milk, which gives it a nice richness.
