Vegan Blueberry Cream Pie

“This is the best pie I ever ate…” A sentence from my boyfriend… a rare sentence, which I actually never heard before. Especially since he is a big fan of my savory dishes but often rolls his eyes when I create a new dessert. But not this time! He seriously LOVED this blueberry cream pie and almost ate the entire cheesecake by himself. Well at least I could grab 2 small pieces and I can confirm that this pie is delicious!

I always get excited when fresh blueberries are available in the store because I have so many ideas for blueberry desserts. Blueberries are simply delicious, healthy and pretty. I used them to make the yummy blueberry lime compote which adds a special note and underlines the taste of the cream layer. This blueberry cream pie recipe is vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and easy to make.

Blueberry Cream Pie Ingredients

The crust of this blueberry pie contains almond flour, oats, nuts or seeds of choice (you could use peanuts, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, sunflower seeds etc.), a liquid sweetener like agave syrup or maple syrup, and vanilla extract.

The cream layer contains soaked cashews, tofu, a liquid sweetener, coconut milk, lime- or lemon juice and vanilla extract. You can use silken tofu or regular tofu, both work well. You could also double the amount of cashews and leave out the tofu if you can’t eat soy. Or you could use coconut yogurt or vegan cream cheese (which isn’t soy-based) instead, however, the cream layer might turn out less firm. Furthermore, I really love how the cream layer of this blueberry pie came out with the cashew/tofu combination.

The blueberry compote contains blueberries, lime- or lemon juice, a liquid sweetener and I also added a teaspoon of maqui berry powder. This is optional but it adds a very lovely color. I once used it to naturally color the purple layer of my Raw Vegan Blueberry Cheesecake.

How To Make A Blueberry Cream Pie?

First, you need to soak the cashews until they are soft. It’s possible to boil them in water for about 15 minutes. Next, you start making the crust and press it into a lined pie pan or springform. Bake the crust in the oven. Meanwhile, you can prepare the cream. Simply process all ingredients in a blender or food processor until creamy. Pour the cream onto the cooled pie crust and put the pie into the freezer until the cream sets (45-60 minutes).

It’s also possible to bake the pie crust WITH the cream in the oven. You will need to increase the baking time by about 15 minutes. The pie will turn out more like a cheesecake. Finally, make the blueberry compote and pour it on top of the blueberry pie.

This Cheesecake is:
