This easy vegan key lime pie (made with only seven ingredients!) is the perfect light, refreshing dessert on a sunny day. Zesty – yet sweet – creamy vegan lime pie filling complemented by a nutty gluten-free shortcrust pastry. The thought just has me drooling. This key lime pie recipe is healthier than the original and is spectacularly easy to make!

Directions

gluten-free shortcrust pastry

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C / 350°F / 160°C fan and grease a springform cake tin or pie tin.
  2. Add all of your crust ingredients to a mixing bowl and mix until combined. The mixture should be quite wet.
  3. 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.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes until golden brown.

  1. Add all of your filling ingredients to a saucepan and whisk until smooth.
  2. Heat on low-medium heat, stirring regularly to avoid burning. Stir until thickened – this should take around 10 minutes.
  3. 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.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
  5. Top with lime zest and whipped cream or coconut yoghurt.
