Vegan Key Lime Pie
15

"This is a recipe I've fine-tuned to my vegan mother's taste, which is quite the challenge considering her strict diet.

Directions

- Process avocados, coconut oil, lime juice, and 1/4 cup agave nectar in a food processor until filling is very smooth; pour over the crust, smoothing with the back of a spoon or spatula.
- Freeze pie until set, at least 4 hours. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
Footnotes
- Cook's Notes:
- Any nut can be substituted for the almond meal. Walnut and macadamia nut have worked well for me in the past.

- Feel free to add more lime juice to the filling, as everyone's taste varies.
