This semi homemade dessert is everything you love about coconut cream pie – buttery graham cracker crust, rich coconut vanilla custard, and silky whipped cream – all without all of the time, effort, or dairy!

Easy peasy and so delicious! I can’t wait for you to try 😊

Makes 2 8″ pies

  • 2 store-bought graham cracker crusts (check to make sure they’re vegan, most are)
  • 2 packets of vegan Instant pudding mix, like Jello
  • 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
  • 2 cans full fat coconut milk
  • 1 can lite coconut milk
  • 2 batches of coconut whipped cream
  • 1/3 cup toasted coconut flakes
  1. In a large bowl, combine the pudding mix, coconut milks, and cream of tartar. Mix with a hand mixer for 2-3 minutes, then divide evenly between two pie shells.
  2. Cover and refrigerate overnight to set.
  3. To decorate, top with a generous amount of coconut whipped cream (recipe here) or store bought whipped topping. Sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes and serve.

TIPS FOR FINDING VEGAN PIE SHELLS

A lot of store bought pie shells are accidentally vegan Just make sure they don’t contain butter (most don’t) or honey (some do).
