Vegan No-Bake Strawberry Pie


VEGAN NO-BAKE STRAWBERRY PIE



1/2 cup raw cashews

8 medjool dates, pitted and chopped

1 cup old fashioned rolled

2-3 tablespoons apple juice

1 12.3-ounce package Morinu organic firm silken tofu

2 medjool dates, pitted and chopped

3 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon ground chia seeds,

1 teaspoon grated lemon rind

1 vanilla bean (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)

1/2 cup apple juice

2 teaspoons agar powder (or 2 tablespoons agar flakes)

stevia, erythritol, or other sweetener to taste

12 ounces strawberries, stemmed and sliced



Place the cashews in a small bowl and add water to cover them by about 1 inch. Soak for at least 2 hours or in the refrigerator overnight. Place the 8 chopped dates into a food processor. Add the oats and process until crumbly. With the machine running, add 2 tablespoons of apple juice. Continue to process until mixture begins to adhere together. If necessary, add more juice a teaspoon at a time. You want it to be sticky but not wet. Press into the bottom of an 8-inch pie pan and up the sides about 1 inch. Set aside. Drain cashews and place in blender. Add tofu, 2 dates, lemon juice, chia seeds, and lemon rind. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and use a spoon to scrape out the seeds inside; add them to the blender. Blend on high speed until completely smooth. Taste the filling mixture and add sweetener to taste. Heat the 1/2 cup of apple juice in a small sauce pan. Sprinkle in agar powder. Stir and heat until agar dissolves and juice begins to boil. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute after boiling. Add the agar mixture to the contents of the blender. Put the top on the blender and blend at high speed until well-blended. Pour into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate until chilled and set. Top with sliced strawberries before serving.
