Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for crust)
- 14 ounces silken tofu (drained)
- 0.5 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup honey or maple syrup
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 3 drops orange food coloring (optional)
- 1 cup whipped coconut cream or regular whipped cream (for garnish)
- 4 slices orange slices (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted unsalted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
In a blender or food processor, add the silken tofu, orange juice, orange zest, vanilla extract, honey or maple syrup, powdered sugar, and cornstarch.
Blend the mixture until it is completely smooth and creamy. If desired, add orange food coloring and blend again until well combined.
Pour the tofu mixture into the cooled graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set and firm.
Before serving, garnish the pie with whipped coconut cream or regular whipped cream and orange slices.
Slice, serve, and enjoy your Dreamsicle Tofu Pie!
