When the pie was opened
The birds began to sing;
Wasn't that a dainty dish,
To set before the king.
NURSERY RHYME
I love pecan pie. It's one of those holiday foods that is non-negotiable. It was one of the first holiday recipes I searched for when Mr. Peasant decided to go vegan. But making a vegan pecan pie seemed way too complicated. Here is a delicious vegan pecan pie alternative that is super simple. It only takes 15 minutes to make! Plus, they are bite-sized so perfect for a party.
Vegan Pecan Pie Bites
Makes 15 bite sized "pies"
1 TB Earth Balance Vegan Butter Spread melted
1 tsp Ground Flax Seeds mixed with 2 tsp water
4 tsp Brown Sugar
2 TB honey
1/4 tsp Vanilla
1/2 cup chopped Pecans
1 package Athens Mini Phyllo Shells (15 shells)
Preheat oven (or toaster oven) to 350 degrees.
Mix butter, flax "egg", sugar, honey and vanilla in a bowl. Then add chopped pecans and mix well. Place mini shells on a baking sheet. Fill each shell evenly with the mixture. Place in oven for 10 minutes. (Shells come precooked, so keep an eye out on them to not burn.) Once cooled, they are ready to enjoy!
I hope you try this recipe for the holidays! Thank you for reading and please keep praying for Mr. Peasant!
