If you weren’t already convinced that tofu could be used in anything, then try this recipe out. This incredibly simple pie filling recipe takes only 4 ingredients and tastes amazing. It’s also way healthier than standard pudding filling recipes and, if you sub out the honey for agave nectar, you can make it vegan.
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
Filling
- 2 blocks extra-firm silken tofu (I prefer the Mori Nu brand)
- 3/4 cup honey
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp vanilla
Graham Cracker Crust
- 1 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers
- 1 egg white
- 3 tbsp butter
Directions
Filling
- Blend tofu in food processor until very smooth.
- Add the honey, cocoa powder, and vanilla and blend until completely mixed (make sure to use a spatula to clean off the sides).
Graham Cracker Crust
- Preheat oven to 425F
- Beat egg white until peaks are just starting to form.
- In a large bowl, mix the egg white into the graham crackers.
- Melt the butter and add to the bowl. Mix with a fork.
- Pour the mixture into a pie dish and press into the bottom and sides to form the pie crust.
- Bake for 8 minutes and let cool.
Assembly
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust and spread out evenly with a spatula.
- Optional: Use chocolate syrup to make a fancy design.
- Refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
