Instructions

Making the crust

Place all the ingredients for the pie crust, except the coconut butter, into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until a crunchy, sticky consistency forms.

Grease an 8- or 9-inch pie pan thoroughly with coconut butter.

Spread the crunchy paste evenly in the pan, pressing it down and pushing it up the sides to form an even crust layer.

Place the pan in the freezer for at least 30 minutes while you prepare the filling.

Coconut cream filling

Remove the coconut cream bar from its box, place it in a food processor, add one can of chilled coconut milk, and blend until smooth. (The pandan extract will turn the cream a beautiful mild green.)

Combine the rice flour or arrowroot powder with water and mix well.

Pour the mixture into a saucepan and simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

In an upright blender, combine the cashews, rice or maple syrup, salt, and nutmeg, and blend until smooth. Then add the thickened sauce and the coconut milk-cream mixture followed by the coconut oil, blending again until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Remove the crust from the freezer and pour the coconut filling into it. Refrigerate the pie while preparing the topping.

Topping of Raspblueberry or strawberry topping

In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup apple juice and agar-agar. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes until all the agar flakes dissolve completely.

In a small bowl, combine the rice flour or arrowroot with the remaining apple juice and slowly drizzle it over the simmering mixture while whisking until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat and cover.

In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries with coconut sugar and pandan extract, tossing gently to combine.

Pour the warm agar juice mixture over the berries and toss quickly to coat.

Remove the coconut cream pie from the refrigerator and top with the berry mixture. Refrigerate until set, preferably overnight.

Serve sprinkled with thinly sliced coconut flakes and store covered in the refrigerator.
