These 7-ingredient vegan key lime pies are creamy, tart, and naturally sweetened. They feature a delicious no-bake crust and a rich, coconut-lime filling that’s perfect for summer desserts.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Medjool dates (pitted)
  • 1 1/2 cups raw walnuts
  • 1 1/2 cups raw cashews (soaked)
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup lime juice (preferably key lime, freshly squeezed)
  • 1 tbsp lime zest

Instructions

  1. Soak cashews in very hot water for 1 hour or in cool water for 6 hours or overnight. Drain thoroughly before using.
  2. Add dates to a food processor and blend until small bits remain. Remove and set aside.
  3. Add walnuts to the processor and pulse into a meal. Then add dates back in and blend until a loose dough forms. If too dry, add a few more dates.
  4. Line a muffin tin with paper liners and divide crust evenly, pressing with fingers to form a base. Place in freezer to firm up.
  5. Add soaked cashews, coconut oil, maple syrup, lime juice, and lime zest to a high-speed blender. Blend until very smooth and creamy.
  6. Remove crusts from freezer and pour filling into each crust. Tap to remove air bubbles and smooth tops.
  7. Freeze for 2-4 hours or until firm. Allow to sit out for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Store in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
  • Top with coconut whipped cream or lime zest for extra flavor.
  • Use key lime juice if available for authentic flavor.
