Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup unsweetened plain almondmilk
- 2 tablespoons agar-agar flakes or 1 1/2 teaspoons agar-agar powder
- 2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
- 1 (12.0-ounce) package silken tofu, drained
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 prebaked vegan pie shell, cooled
Method
Pour almondmilk into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Stir in agar-agar and cook at a bare simmer, stirring frequently, until agar-agar is completely dissolved, 4 to 5 minutes.
Combine tofu, maple syrup, cocoa powder, espresso powder, vanilla, salt and almondmilk mixture in a blender.
Blend until very smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender if necessary.
Pour into pie shell; if your shell is too small to hold all the mixture, refrigerate any excess in a small cup to eat like pudding.
Cover and refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours.
