Flaky Vegan Pie Crust

Vegan Pie Recipes
Written by Mattie

Wow, I am so glad to find this recipe, and I'll be trying it soon. I was a faithful fan of "Cook's Illustrated" before I went vegan, and I have more confidence in a vegan cook who researches, tests, and explains recipes in the "Cook's Illustrated" style. I'll report back after I make your Vegan Pecan Pie for my sweetie's birthday. He doesn't want cake.

Perfect results
I'm relatively new to vegan cooking and although I have some baking experience, I had never baked rolls from scratch before. I was bold enough to use a group of non-vegan friends as guinea pigs, but these didn't disappoint... The result lacks nothing short of the regular kind, and definitely beats the commercially produced ones. I followed every step of the very clear instructions, except that I...

Thank you, worth the wait!!!
Thank you for this fantastic recipe! I subbed 1.5 c of whole wheat flour, 2 tsp instant yeast, and skipped the raisins. Next time I will increase the cinnamon in the filling, too. I used the exact rise times although maybe with instant yeast I could have shortened them. The rolls didn't seem done at 15 minutes and even at a little over 20 minutes when I took them out, I didn't see much browning...

Hello there. After reading a lot about Flax seeds and Vegan butter i decided to do these yummy looking treats with Flax meal and homemade vegan butter (based on your recipe). i did everything exactly as you said but ended up with an extra firm dough which didn't "rise" at all.. is this ok? should i keep on backing or will it turn out hard as a rock? thank you

Mmmm!
I followed your instructions to a tee and, voila, the outcome was just perfect! This is coming from the unluckiest baker in Canada, where everything always burns or tastes like crap. I served them to my dad this morning, and he said you couldn't get better chelsea buns from a bakery (and he's not one to sugar coat a compliment). These were truly perfect, in every way. Even my boyfriend, the...

The last Friday of September is Vegan Baking Day. A day to spread vegan baking by sharing tasty eats with your community!

Here's a Tip!

To help frosting stick to your cake and make it as free from crumbs as possible, give it a Crumb Coat. This is a thin coating of frosting meant to absorb the outermost crumb of the cake. The cake is then placed into the refrigerator for about an hour so the frosting hardens. You then spread frosting over this hardened frosting with minimal fuss.
