Vegan Sweet Potato Pie Recipe – Vegan/Vegetarian Thanksgiving Recipe

Sweet Potato Pie is one of my favorites, Vegan Sweet Potato Pies sounds even better.

Ingredients:

Vegan Sweet Potato Pie Crust:

• 1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
• ¼ cup frozen Earth Balance veggie spread
• ¼ cup vegetable shortening
• 3 tablespoons Ice water

Vegan Sweet Potato Pie Filling:

• 2 cups cooked mashed sweet potatoes
• ¼ cup vegan butter, such as Earth Balance
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• 1/3 cup raw sugar
• ½ cup almond milk
• 8 oz vegan cream cheese
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ teaspoon nutmeg
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ginger

Directions:

Preheat to 350 degrees

Vegan Sweet Potato Pie Crust:

Cut vegan butter and vegetable shortening into all purpose flour until mixture is crumbly.

Add in ice water and combine with hands, but only until you are able to create a ball of dough.

Place the dough ball onto parchment paper and use a rolling pin to roll it out to the size of the pie pan.

Place the flattened dough into the pie baking dish and press it to the bottom and sides. Use a fork to perforate the crust all over, even on the sides.

Bake for 20 – 25 minutes, until just golden brown.

Vegan Sweet Potato Pie Filling:

Use an electric mixer to mix together mashed sweet potatoes, vegan butter, maple syrup, almond milk, vegan cream cheese,  vanilla extract, nutmeg, cinnamon, and ginger. Add the sweet potato mixture to the baked pie crust.

Bake the Vegan Sweet Potato Pie for about 40 minutes.
