Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 40 mins
Total Time: 1 hrs
Cuisine: Dessert
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made graham cracker crust
- 1 cup vegan white chocolate chips
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients and ensure they are at room temperature before beginning.
- In a medium saucepan, combine coconut cream, maple syrup, and cornstarch. Whisk thoroughly until the cornstarch is completely dissolved and no lumps remain.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Cook the mixture until it begins to thicken and small bubbles form around the edges, approximately 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the pan from heat and add vegan white chocolate chips. Stir gently until the chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Stir in vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
- Allow the filling to cool for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent skin from forming on top.
- Pour the white chocolate filling into the pre-made graham cracker crust, spreading evenly with a spatula.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 3-4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the filling to set completely.
- Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to soften slightly.
- Optionally, garnish with vegan whipped cream or shaved white chocolate before serving.
