Pie Ingredients

Glaze Ingredients

Directions

1. Start with the glaze which makes 1/4 cup (enough to glaze one pie).
2. In a heavy pot, slowly melt the chocolate. Stir in honey and vanilla.
3. Set aside in refrigerator.
4. Pre-heat oven to 350F.
5. Lightly oil a 9″ pie pan.
6. Mix graham cracker crumbs with enough tahini so it holds together and can be pressed into the pie pan to form a crust. Set aside.
7. In a food processor, blend the honey, water, oil and 2 Tbsp tahini. Blend in coffee substitute.
8. Add tofu chunks, one at a time. Mix until creamy.
9. Pour half the tofu mixture into the pie pan. Drizzle chocolate glaze over it. Cover with the rest of the tofu.
10. Gently insert a knife into the pie & pull up the chocolate, making swirling designs.
11. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes.

Helpful Hints

1. A graham cracker crust usually calls for butter which you can use instead of the tahini. Coconut oil is a plant-based option that would also work. Use enough to get the crumbs to hold together and form a crust.
2. To reduce the sugar content of this recipe you could replace half the honey with stevia in the creamy filling.
3. For a gluten-free crust try ground up corn flakes in place of the graham cracker crumbs.
