Instructions

  • Start by making your flax egg. Combine a 2 TB flax meal with 4 TB water and set it aside.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a pie pan.
  • Make your pie crust or use a premade pie shell. Pre-bake the pie crust with pie weights in it at 350 for 5 minutes, then remove and set aside.
  • Toast your chopped pecans. Get a large skillet and 1 TB melted vegan butter and toast on medium heat, stirring; make sure not to burn them it happens fast. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Take a small bowl, combine the ten saltines crunched up with ½ cup of warm water, and set it aside.
  • Take a small saucepan and combine the sugars, corn syrups, and vegan butter; combine the corn starch and water and stir until smooth, then add this mixture and the water-absorbed saltines, and mix well. Let this cook on high heat, stirring as needed, until it starts to boil; let boil for 2 minutes, remove from heat, add the vanilla extract, salt, and flax eggs, and stir until combined. Mix in the toasted pecans and stir.
  • Pour this mixture into the prepared pie shell and bake for 45-50 minutes. Don't overbake. It won't seem done, but it will harden as it cools.
  • Let rest for 6 hours or more to let the pie set.
