No Bake Mini Key Lime Pies
These flavorful no bake mini key lime pies are super easy to make and so refreshing! Made with a handful of simple ingredients that are gluten free and can be made vegan!
Equipment
- Mini cup/tart pan
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup key lime cashew butter sub regular cashew butter
- 1 tbsp coconut oil melted
- 2 tbsp vanilla protein powder
- 1/3 cup plain yogurt preferably Greek style, can use dairy free
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 key lime or regular lime
- crushed cookies or graham crackers to top
Instructions
- Start by placing mini cupcake liners in the tray or greasing each one with coconut oil or neutral spray
- In a bowl, melt together the cashew butter and coconut oil. Remove from heat and add the vanilla protein powder. If you do not have protein powder, use oat flour.
- Distribute the batter in each of the 12 molds of the tray evenly. Then using your finger or the back of a spoon, press each one down so that it is flat and even.
- In another bowl, combine the yogurt, vanilla extract, maple syrup and juice of the key lime (or lime). Whisk this together for about a minute so that the texture is fluffier.
- Add the filling on top of each "no bake crust", about 1/2 a tablespoon at a time. Each mini pie should have the same amount but it is okay if they are a little off!
- Crush up a few cookies or graham crackers and sprinkle them on point. Then just slightly press them in, just enough to keep them in place
- Freeze for at least an hour and enjoy!
Notes
- Any nut butter will work but the flavor may be slightly off.
- You can use dairy free yogurt in place of the regular dairy yogurt
- See post for all substitutionsÂ
