Thanks so much! It just really is amazing how similar to the full butter and eggs kind of pie is!!
I’m new to this. Just made this, and wished that it was mentioned to double the recipe for a store bought crust. !… My non vegan/ vegetarian/ sweet tooth husband fell in love with me even more after eating a piece of the pie !…hehehe…thanks Sarah! Thank you for all your recipes! So thank you from a person who has very limited food preferences. In short, HE LOVES IT. Blend until smooth and gooey, scraping down the sides often. Hi, made this yesterday with Walden Farms pancake syrup (real maple flavor but no sugar) and sucralose and it came out great! Storing – Store leftover in the freezer for up to 2 months. This will definitely be made each year from now on! I am Vegan and am slowly working on my husband, and this recipe with Megan’s pie crust recipe cannot be beat. Cut out 12 three-inch strips of parchment paper and line the bottom of each tin so that the parchment paper hangs over the edge. Serving – Store the pecan pie in the freezer. That’s right, this decadent dessert is made from walnuts, dates, and pecans alone for a vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and wholesome holiday dessert.
I don’t know if this helps, but if you heat up the maple syrup to 235 degrees, it will mimick the texture of the corn syrup is supposed to impart on pecan pie. Note: We've provided special diet and nutritional information for educational purposes. I also tested this recipe using only 1/2 cup of dates + 1 cup of maple syrup, and enjoyed the results– but my testers thought the flavor wasn’t quite as authentic, since the maple flavor was a little heavier.

I just watched your instagram live tonight!
I prefer using the food processor so I can make my crust in it first, and then make the filling in the same bowl.
How much honey would you put instead of maple syrup?
You can put it in the fridge to speed the process, if you'd like to. The filling will still be somewhat soft. Preheat an oven to 350°F and line a 9″ pie pan with parchment paper. Bryan, you can get a replacement tamper from the Vitamix company. To make this pecan pie egg-free, I added 2 tablespoons of ground flax seed to act as a binder. How much dates should I used if they already have the pots removed?
That sweet, gooey filling that melts in your mouth while bursting with hints of caramel and nuts.
Amazing! I’m excited to try this recipe in tart size. I used a mini muffin tin and one is pretty much the perfect amount. Pro Tip – When preparing your muffin tin, cut thin strips of parchment paper and place them at the bottom of each mold, ensuring that they peak out about 1/4-1/2 inch. Medjool dates are one of my favorite fruit sweetener options as they are unprocessed, high in fiber, and add a deliciously caramelly texture to any recipe. If you give this recipe recipe a try, snap a photo and share it on Instagram. Put the pie on a baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges start to set and brown. 10 stars! It gives them a little extra volume and makes them blend up smoother. A perfect pecan pie! Time/temp change? Which is basically completely covered. However, if you try it, let us know how it goes! I haven’t had pecan pie in 9 years since I went vegan. When it's done baking the top should look drier and the edges of the filling will be firm to a light touch. Grinding some extra pecans into the filling also helps with the binding, and provides extra pecan flavor! Note: You will only need to soak the dates for the pie crust in this recipe; do not soak the dates … Enjoy! No, it’s not gooey like traditional pecan pie, but honestly that was what I liked least about it anyway, so I don’t mind that this is not like that. Maple syrup is very expensive around here, so I would love for you to add a honey or date syrup option to your recipes….
This vegan pecan pie is entirely raw. Sheri. If i want can i make these a day ahead.
Place the Medjool dates in lukewarm water so that they are fully submerged.
I made this four times over the holiday weekend. Soak for 30 minutes.

Thank you for letting me know!
This look beautiful and sound delicious. This is a great, great recipe. . Question… has anyone used one egg in place of the flaxseed? Anyway, these are FANTASTIC. With the stomper, this filling would have been a breeze in the Vitamix. These are definitely best as bite-sized. Otherwise, the flavor was really fantastic. And there is no better time than Thanksgiving to bite into the decadence of vegan pecan pie once and awhile.
I don’t recommend it. I share this just in case you’re short on dates for this recipe and want to try it that way instead! In a food processor fitted with an "S" blade (or in a high speed blender), combine the dates, maple syrup, flax seeds, 1/2 cup of the pecans, and the salt. Drain and rinse the dates. Bake crust until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
This means you’ll typically find them in the produce section at the grocery store. . For those of us on special diets due to allergies, I find vegan recipes are so helpful! Hi Megan going to try this Vegan pecan pie for Christmas! You can use any other unbaked pie crust that you love, too. Thanks so much for the recipe! Place the pie in the oven to bake at 350ºF for 45 minutes. I used a store-bought vegan crust (wholly wholesome brand) which worked really well. Gently press 15 pecans halved into the top of the pie, arranging them in a pleasing manner. Thank you so much ❤️, I really want to make this for Thanksgiving, but I wanted to use Rum in my pie.
Thank you for sharing! There is something about dates that really heightens the flavor of things. With 14 years of vegan experience, my goal is to make vegan eating easy, fun, and accessible for all.
He is shocked there are so few ingredients!!!! Place them in the freezer and allow tartlets to set up for at least 1 hour. Just a quick question, I’m diabetic and was wondering if you know the total carb count for this desert because I would love to try and make this but only if I could enjoy them guilt free! I have missed it every year since I became vegan. I made these tonight with cashews as the crust since that’s what I had onhand, and added a little coconut flakes in there just as filler. And since product formulations change, check product labels for the most recent ingredient information. Leftover pie should be covered and can be stored on the counter for up to 3 days, or in the fridge for up to a week. Do you soak the dates even if they are not dried? It’s 1 + 3/4 cup walnuts. Because I had to test this recipe so many times, I actually relied on a frozen gluten-free crust from Trader Joe’s so that I wouldn’t have to make a crust from scratch every time. Muffin tin?
