RE: Sumptuous key lime pie that is dairy free and egg free! 100% Vegan key lime pie.
Nice one and thanks for sharing, since becoming vegan in 2012 I seriously still miss cheesecakes so I will be adding this to my ''make this week" list!
Recently I came across a book which has literally revolutionised my vegan cookery called This Cheese is Nuts by Julie Piatt, and wowsers, this lady gets you going again if, like me, you were a feeling a bit jaded in the plant based vegan eating department!
Her vegan "cheeses" are amazingly simple, using guess what??? yep...nuts, from almonds to cashews, and back again...and they really do taste cheesey!
Wishing you full steem ahead in 2018
In peace

Thank you for such a detailed reply, I love to help people out when they find the going a bit tough being Vegan. Cheese cakes are so easy to make too, Not a million miles away from this recipe.
I only tried to make vegan cheese once, it failed miserably!! But I will get back around to it at some stage, all the new varieties in the stores are just so tempting!
Ah the old "I miss cheese" vegan cry which if you think about it is similar to the meat eater "can't live without bacon" schtik.
Meant to ask you....after you've frozen it for about 3 hours, do you eat it straight from the freezer or allow to come back to room temp before serving?
Really looking forward to making this later on this week...I will let you know how I get on!
Depending on ambient temperature really, but I'd say about 20 min should do it. The agar agar really helps it keep shape so it wont melt really unless its hot.
LOL totally true on the I miss cheese, I mean really its bovine lactate! If you made human milk cheese people would think your cray cray!
Ok 20mins post freezing and lime yumsville here we come...got it thanks!
And you're exactly bang on... if milk was rebranded as bovine lactate, along with a graphic picture on the label of a calf muzzled to prevent it from suckling I doubt there's be many takers!! Can't see supermarkets or milk marketing boards doing this anytime soon...can you?
One of my past times is to troll the dairy board here! LOL
Great minds and all that!
