Vegan Cookie Pie Crust

Use any kind of store-bought vegan cookie you like for this one: gingersnaps for pumpkin pies, chocolate or peanut butter sandwich cookies for cheesecakes, or wafers for a neutral flavor.

INGREDIENTS | SERVES 8

  • 25 small vegan cookies
  • ¼ cup vegan margarine, melted
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  1. Process cookies in a food processor until finely ground. Or, working in batches, seal cookies in a ziplock bag and crumble using a rolling pin until fine.

  2. Add margarine and vanilla a bit at a time until mixture is sticky.

  3. Press evenly into pie tin, spreading about ¼-inch thick. No prebaking is needed.
