Gluten-Free Shortcrust Pastry 120 g Ground Almonds (1.5 cup) 60 g Oat Flour (⅔ cup) 2 tbsp Agave or Maple Syrup 2 tbsp Coconut Oil, melted A pinch of salt Vegan Key Lime Pie Filling 1 tin Full-Fat Coconut Milk 400ml 80 g Agave or Maple Syrup (¼ cup) 2 Limes zest and juice 30 g Cornflour (3 tbsp) 1 tsp Matcha optional
Gluten-Free Shortcrust Pastry Preheat your oven to 180°C / 350°F / 160°C fan and grease a springform cake tin or pie tin.
Add all of your crust ingredients to a mixing bowl and mix until combined. The mixture should be quite wet.
Press the mixture into your tin, making sure there are no holes or cracks. Press the crust up around the edges to create a pie shell.
Bake for 10 minutes until golden brown.
Vegan Key Lime Pie Filling Add all of your filling ingredients to a saucepan and whisk until smooth.
Heat on low-medium heat, stirring regularly to avoid burning. Stir until thickened - this should take around 10 minutes.
Pour the filling into your baked pie crust then cover the top with some clingfilm or parchment paper to avoid a film forming on top.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
Top with lime zest and whipped cream or coconut yoghurt.
