Any recommendations for portions to make these as mini pies?

In reply to Leslie Uptain. Hi Leslie, have you tried rolling it out between two pieces of parchment paper? It makes the transfer a bit easier.

I’ve tried this vegan crust four times now. I love the flavor … but can never get it to roll out easily or easily transfer it to the pie pan. It always falls apart in multiple pieces, and I end up just using my fingers to create the crust directly in the pan.

Any tips?

In reply to Jeanine Donofrio. Thanks for the make-ahead idea Jeanine. I love that recipe! We are big L&L fans in this house and I use your cookbooks at least twice a week. :) So far, I have your green bean casserole, mashed cauliflower potatoes, mushroom gravy and “best stuffing” on the menu. Cannot wait! Thank you for your inspiring and delicious recipes Jeanine. You are a true gift to the culinary world!

Hi Denise, because of the coconut oil, it dries out in the fridge. This awesome apple crisp can be made the day before and baked when you’re ready to eat: https://www.loveandlemons.com/apple-crumble/

I’m really looking forward to making this for Thanksgiving Jeanine! Can the crust be made a day or two ahead?

Tried this recipe this weekend and had a hell of a time with the crust. It was so crumbly yet wet I had put it back in the fridge to reroll it. I think I should’ve refrigerated the coconut oil, and just went for it with AP flour all the way. I just got excited about vegan pie crust I guess. The filling was a bit liquidy, so my favorite part was the crumble topping. For the leftovers, I’ve honestly been scooping out the filling and topping because despite working so hard on the crust, the taste of it wasn’t worth the calories. I so love your site/books and make your strawberry crumble constantly. This particular one wasn’t the best experience, but if you’re a reader, skip the crust and try one of her crumbles…they’re amazing!

This pie looks wonderful! Finally I find a crust with coconut oil and no nasty hidrogenated shortening (there’s non-hidrogenated, but still hate it).

Super delicious! 🙂
