Pi Day Banana Pie

IT’S PI DAY!!! Okay, call me a huge nerd I do not care but pi day is one of my favorite holidays! All the puny pi jokes, plus the association with pi its just a fun unproblematic holiday. One day I was craving banana pudding but as pie so I created a banana pudding pie, let me know if you consider this a pie but it is SOOO GOOD you gotta give it a try! But let’s get to it because I could talk about this for as long as pi…..

Ingredients:

• Jell-O Pudding (I use vanilla but you can use banana if you want more flavor)
• Banana’s (Honestly however much you would like I use 3)
• Nilla Wafers (Nilla Wafers are not vegan but trader joes and whole food brand vanilla wafers’ ingredients do not include eggs or milk products)
• Vegan Butter
• Whipped or Meringue Topping (They sell vegan coconut whipped cream, I personally do not like it so I use vegan meringue)
  • For Meringue Topping:
    • Can of Chickpeas
    • Sugar
    • Vanilla
    • Cream of Tar Tar
    • Xanthum Gum (optional)

Now Let’s Get Cooking:

1. Put 2 cups of nilla wafers and 2 tbsp of sugar(optional) into a blender or food processors (or honestly a bag and go to town) you should have a course ground crumb.
2. Mix with melted butter and mold into your pie pan and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until baked (10 mins) take out and let cool
3. Make putting according to package.
4. Chop Bananas into pennies.
5. (If you are using whipped topping skip this step) Whip chickpea liquid and cream of tar tar in a bowl on medium until it begins to get frothy (1 – 2 mins). Mix in sugar, vanilla and xanthium powder (this is optional but will add more stability).
6. Put a layer of banana pennies on the pie crust, pour in the pudding, put another layer of banana pennies and top with whipped toping.
7. If you use whipped topping add bananas to the top and chill in fridge.
8. If you use the vegan meringue bake until meringue browns and chill in fridge.
9. Let chill. Cut and Enjoy!
