Recipes For The Fall
The egg replacer I use for the pies and bread is a mixture of flaxseed meal & water. Flaxseed is rich in fiber, lignans (natural antioxidents) and omega-3 fats
Pumpkin Pie
1 can (15 oz) organic pumpkin
3/4 cup vanilla soy milk
1/3 cup agave nectar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/4 tsp ginger
6 Tbsp flaxseed meal
9 Tbsp water
1 Vegan Pie Crust (I use Wholly Wholesome Organice Pie Crust)
Preheat oven to 400
Mix together the first 7 ingredients. In a small cup mix together the flaxseed meal and water stirring until well mixed. Let sit for a couple of minutes. In a food processor put in the pumpkin mixture and the flaxseed mixture. Mix until all blended. Pour into a frozen pie crust. Bake at 400 for 15 minutes. Then reduce oven temperature to 375 and bake for another hour, 15 min. If a knife inserted might not come out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool. Needs to be refrigerated to further set before cutting. Serve with vegan whip cream
Preheat oven to 350. Spray a cookie sheet with pan spray
In a large bowl mix together the rolled oats, flour, baking soda and spices and set a side. Put in the food processor chop up the dates or prunes, apricots and cranberries and put in a large bowl. Mix into the dried fruit mixture the yogurt, vanilla and soy milk until well mixed. Add the flour mixture 1 cup at a time until well mixed. Drop by spoonfuls on a greased cookie sheet. Take the spoonful and squeeze it in your fingers to stick together, place on the cookie sheet and gently press down bit. Bake for 13-15 minutes. Cool on wax paper.
Makes approx 40-55 cookies depending on the size you make them. They freeze well for a couple weeks.
