A Very Vegan Valentine’s Day – 2012 – Coconut brownies of love

January 26th, 2012

cakey coconut brownie, topped w/ toasted coconut flakes, then double frosting -- black (chocolate) and white (coconut).

We dressed up our coconut brownies because we love them….

We decided this year, for Valentine’s Day, we had to make a special brownie, since brownies are what we make the most of.  If we had to pick our favorite  brownie, it would undoubtedly be the coconut brownie. So to celebrate Valentine’s Day, we are icing them up with black and white frosting, and wrapping them up and sending them to you. Once you order…. So order already. Please!

Harvest Pie – Vegan, Organic, Soyfree, Glutenfree

December 26th, 2011

Harvest pie in a frozen crust (not the crust in this recipe post)

This is our latest pie creation; and, of course, our current favorite. This pie is rich and creamy with a lovely well rounded sweetness from the combination of pumpkin, sweet potato and squash. It is mildly spiced, so the other flavors come through. If you like a spicier pie, increase the spices, though we recommend you try it just the way it is!

The slice in the photo above is the filling baked in a frozen vegan crust. We had some extra filling left from making small pies and  no more crusts, nor the inclination to make one just for us….. The whole pie photo below, is the exact pie you will make if you follow this recipe.

The thing that makes this recipe so appealing, besides that it tastes awesome, is that the cashews are not soaked. This means we can make a pie in no time at all if we get an order.  This is probably something that would appeal to those of you wanting to make it at home as well.

HARVEST PIE

Makes one 9 inch pie. Serves 8 or more.

Crust:

Dry:

  • ½ cup gluten-free oats
  • ¼ cup whole, raw brazil nuts
  • ¼ cup gluten-free flour mix #2
  • 1 teaspoon sorghum flour
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon arrowroot
  • Pinch cinnamon
  • Dash xanthan gum

Wet:

  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 4 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Preparation:

Lightly oil 9 inch tart pan.

Put the nuts and all dry ingredients in food processor and process until perfectly smooth. Dough should be oily from the nuts. Be sure to scrape sides of food processor to ensure nuts are completely blended.

Add liquids through the spout of the food processor, and process until just together. Careful not to over process.

With well-floured hands, press dough into 9 inch pie pan. This pie crust does not need to be pre-baked.

Filling:

  • 4.5 ounces raw organic cashews
  • 10 ounces organic pumpkin (fresh or canned)
  • 4 ounces steamed sweet potato
  • 6 ounces steamed butternut squash
  • 1/2 cup organic maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup organic agave syrup
  • 1/2 cup So Delicious coconut milk
  • 2 1/8 teaspoon arrowroot
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/16 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/16 teaspoon mace
  • 1 sliver fresh organic ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place all ingredients in food processor and process until perfectly smooth. This should take several minutes, and you will need to pause and scrape the sides of the food processor. There should be no lumps visible in the mixture. The key to the texture of this pie is to process it well at this stage.

Bake for 45 minutes or until firm to the touch. Allow to cool. Refrigerate overnight before serving. The pie will get firmer as it chills.

Pour into unbaked pie crust.

The real deal -- Gone Pie Stylee!

Gluten-free Pumpkin cheesecake recipe (updated)

November 19th, 2011

Pumpkin cheesecake in the pan

This is a recipe we have been making for about 20 years! It pre-dates the new trend of using faux cream cheese in vegan cheesecakes. The recipe itself has not changed much over time. The only major change is that we now use a small amount of cashews as well as tofu to make a slightly firmer, more traditionally cheesecake like dessert.

In my opinion, this recipe is still the best pumpkin pie we make. The spice blend, fresh ginger and lemon, give the pie a wonderful flavor, and the tofu gives it a creamy smooth texture. The pecans on top are optional. We like the creamy pie with just a little crunch on top!

Hope you like it too!
