Prep Time15 minutes mins
Cook Time45 minutes mins
Total Time1 hour hr
Servings: 1 9 inch pie
- 1 uncooked, pie crust **Recipe below
- 2 flax eggs ( 2 TB flax meal with 4 TB water)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup white sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup all purpose flour
- 1 stick Earth Balance Vegan butter, soft
- 1.5 cups chocolate chips
- 1 cup nuts optional
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.
2. Take your uncooked pie crust and prepare it in a pie pan. Stick in the fridge or freezer while you're preparing the filling.3. Make your flax egg and set aside.
4. Take your mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix your softened butter, sugars, salt, vanilla, once mixed add flax egg and mix well. Add your flour and mix until combined, then stir in your chocolate chips and nuts if using. Take out your pie pan, pour the filling into it and spread with a spatula until its even (it is a thick mixture).
5. Bake in the oven for 45- 60 minutes. It will get a golden crackly top on it, it may not look done and some of the oil separates a bit, once cool it's not oily on the top. When a knife comes out clean about halfway into the pie, it's done. This is best served warm with vegan ice cream. We usually let it cool for a few hours and then heat it up before serving.
