Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

Filling

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping

  • 1 cup coconut cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, almond flour, and salt. Add the melted coconut oil and mix until the mixture becomes crumbly. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.
  2. Bake Crust: Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Once baked, remove and set aside to cool completely while preparing the filling.
  3. Cook Strawberry Filling: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh strawberries, coconut sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook the mixture, stirring frequently until it thickens and becomes glossy, approximately 5 minutes.
  4. Finish Filling: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract to enhance the flavor of the filling.
  5. Assemble Pie: Pour the thickened strawberry filling into the cooled crust and spread it evenly to cover the whole surface.
  6. Chill to Set: Refrigerate the assembled pie for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set firmly, making it easier to slice and serve.
  7. Prepare Coconut Whipped Cream: Before serving, whip the coconut cream until soft peaks form to create a smooth and creamy topping.
  8. Serve: Dollop the whipped coconut cream over the pie slices for a luscious finish and enjoy this comforting vegan dessert.

Notes

  • Ensure the coconut cream is well chilled before whipping for best results.
  • The pie crust can be made gluten-free by using gluten-free all-purpose flour.
  • Fresh strawberries are best for flavor, but frozen can be used if fresh are not available; thaw and drain excess liquid.
  • For a firmer filling, allow the pie to chill longer than 2 hours if possible.
  • This pie is best served within 2 days for optimal freshness.
