cup coconut oil

tbsp granulated sugar

cup cashew milk

tbsp lime zest

cup powdered sugar
Instructions
Make the Cashew Cream 1 In a large glass bowl, measure out the cashews. 2 Pour water over the cashews, making sure to completely cover them. (I like to add 1-2" above the cashews because they will soak up some of the water.) 3 Soak the cashews for 2+ hours. 4 When the cashews have soaked, drain, and set the cashews aside. 5 In a blender, combine the soaked (and drained) cashews, lime juice, maple syrup and water. 6 Blend until smooth, then set aside. Make the Graham Cracker Crust 1 Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a pie dish, and set aside. 2 In a large bowl, mix together the Graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Stir in the melted coconut oil. 3 Press the mixture into the prepared pie dish, and press firmly to form a crust. 4 When the crust is evenly distributed, pop into the oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the crust has firmed and set. 5 Let cool, and set aside. Make the Coconut Whipped Cream 1 In a cold glass bowl, whip together the coconut cream, lime juice and powdered sugar with a hand mixer or a stand mixer. 2 Beat until soft peaks form, then cover with plastic wrap, and chill until ready to use. Make the Filling + Bake the Pie 1 In a large bowl, whisk together the lime juice, cashew cream and granulated sugar. Add the egg yolks and the lime zest, mixing until combined. 2 Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust, then transfer into the preheated oven, baking for 60 minutes, or until the filling is firm. 3 Cool the pie to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours. 4 Enjoy the pie cold with Coconut Whipped Cream!View original recipe
