Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Filling

  • 1 cup plant-based cream cheese
  • 1 cup plant-based sour cream
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup grape juice
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Topping

  • 2 cups fresh raspberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Mix almond flour, coconut oil, granulated sugar, and natural gelling agent in a bowl until the mixture holds together smoothly. Press the mixture evenly into the pie pan to form a uniform and sturdy crust. Chill it in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes to set.
  2. Make the cream filling: Beat together the plant-based cream cheese and plant-based sour cream until silky and smooth. Gradually add granulated sugar, vanilla extract (natural), lemon zest, and grape juice while mixing continuously. Stir in the natural gelling agent to help the filling set perfectly.
  3. Assemble the pie: Pour half of the cream filling into the chilled crust and spread evenly. Arrange fresh raspberries on top in a single, even layer. Carefully pour the remaining filling over the berries to cover them while keeping them visible for a layered look.
  4. Chill and set: Place the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until the cream filling is fully set and firm to the touch. This step ensures the perfect texture and clean slicing.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe raspberries for the best flavor and texture.
  • Chill the pie thoroughly to achieve clean slices and ideal texture.
  • Fold raspberries gently into the filling to maintain their shape when needed.
  • If crust is too crumbly, add a little more coconut oil to help it hold together.
  • Prepare the pie a day in advance to enhance flavor melding and ease serving.
