Ingredients
Homemade vegan graham cracker crust
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- ½ cup all purpose white flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup brown sugar* half cup if you want it more sweet it's mildly sweet
- 2 TB vegan honey or corn syrup
- 2 TB vegan butter cold
- 2 TB shortening
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 TB non dairy milk
Store-bought graham crackers
- 1 ½ cups crushed graham crackers
- 1 TB white sugar
- 1 TB brown sugar
- 5 TB vegan melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and, grease a pie pan, set it aside.
- For the homemade version; Take a large bowl and combine the dry ingredient; the flours, baking soda, salt, and sugar, and whisk until combined. Add the cold vegan butter and shortening and cut in with either two forks or a pastry cutter until it kind of resembles sand. Now mix in the liquid ingredients; vegan honey/corn syrup/vanilla extract/ and non-dairy milk. Stir until combined and it forms a dough.
- Line the dough evenly in the pie pan and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until it's the hardness you desire, it will firm up as it cools.
- Store-bought graham cracker crust; Melt your vegan butter in a medium size bowl, add your crunched-up graham cracker crumbs and sugars, and mix until combined well.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes; remove and let cool.
