How to Make Great Key Lime Pie Vegan But You D Never Guess It

  1. Press 14 ounces of firm or extra-firm tofu to remove excess water. Wrap in a clean kitchen towel or several layers of paper towels and place a heavy object on top for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Combine the pressed tofu, 1 cup of key lime juice (about 8-10 limes), 1 cup of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of lime zest in a high-powered blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Add 1/2 cup of full-fat coconut milk (canned), 1/4 cup of cornstarch, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the blender. Blend again until perfectly smooth and combined.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer on high speed for 2-3 minutes, or until light and fluffy. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect creamy texture.
  5. Pour the mixture into your prepared graham cracker crust (recipe not included).
  6. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set completely.
  7. Garnish with additional lime zest or whipped coconut cream before serving. Enjoy!
  8. Ensure all ingredients used are certified vegan to avoid any non-vegan additives.
