Description

With a gluten-free crust and a gooey banana filling, this vegan chocolate pie is a great choice to consider when serving to people with dietary considerations.

Ingredients

2 cups raw almonds
2 1/2 cups dates, pitted and roughly chopped
1/4 cup water, or as needed
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 pinch salt
6 medium bananas
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips

Directions

1 Prepare pie crust: Place almonds in the bowl of a food processor and process into an almond meal that still has some chunks; do not overprocess. Add dates and pulse until combined with almond meal. Pour water in, 1 tablespoon at a time, with the processor running, until dough sticks together. Mix in cocoa powder and salt.
2 Spread almond crust mixture evenly in the bottom of a 10-inch springform cake pan. Place in the freezer while you prepare filling.
3 Combine bananas, cocoa powder, cardamom, and salt in the food processor bowl; mix until combined and thick.
4 Pour filling on top of the pie crust and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Return to the freezer for at least 2 hours or overnight before slicing and serving.
