Mini Pink Lemonade Pies
Makes 16 servings
1 serving is ½ of a pie
Ingredients
Crust
- 1 cup oat flour
- ½ scoop vanilla protein powder (see note)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 3 tablespoons water
Pie Filling
- 1 cup coconut cream
- ½ cup coconut butter
- 3 tablespoons cherry juice from concentrate
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- zest of 1 lemon
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder (see note)
- ¼ cup honey
Method
- Combine all of crust ingredients in a mixing bowl. Combine until mixture turns crumbly but holds its shape when pressed together.
* If mixture doesn’t hold its shape, add an additional tablespoon of water.
- Evenly distribute crust ingredients into 8 silicone cupcake liners. Press down mixture until a crust is formed.
- Spoon all of the pie filling ingredients into a food processor or mixer.
- Blend until filling is smooth.
- Pour filling ingredients in each liner, on top of crust, about 2/3 full.
- Place mini pies in the freezer for at least 4 hours.
- Remove pies from liners and enjoy!
Notes
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- Choose a vanilla protein powder with as minimal ingredients as possible (make sure you use one with no refined sugars or artificial flavorings.), like this plant-based organic vanilla protein powder.
- If you don’t want to use protein powder, use an additional ¼ cup coconut butter in its place.
- For vegan pies, choose a vegan vanilla protein powder and substitute honey with maple syrup.
