Vegan walnut key lime pie

This is a take on the pie that everyone loves: key lime pie!! I added walnuts to mine and used a walnut crust since it’s quite hard to find vegan graham crackers. 💚

st. Patrick’s day is coming and I’m getting all my green recipes going!!🍀

Walnut key lime pie

Walnuts. Used in the crust and on top of the pie itself.
Lime. I used both lime zest and juice so be sure to users before juicing.
Maple syrup. You can also use agave nectar/syrup.
Canned coconut milk. Canned coconut milk is vital in this pie and can not be substituted.
Spirulina. A type of sea weed powder used for coloring foods (there is no flavor so don’t worry).
