Totally dreamy, vegan banana cream pie - flaky, buttery crust filled with vanilla-whipped cream pudding and loaded with banana slices.
For the Crust
For the Filling
1 3/4 cups nondairy milk, divided
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
For the Whipped Cream
1 cup nondairy heavy cream*
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 bananas, sliced
*Pie will keep covered in the fridge for 3-4 days. Do not freeze!
*I prefer to make my piecrust in a food processor. It’s easier to keep the ingredients cold as you are handling them less. If you would like to go this route, combine all crust ingredients in a food processor using the dough blade and pulse until dough ball comes together. Wrap in plastic and set in the fridge.
*When you are adding the cornstarch mixture to your filling be sure you are whisking! If you dump it in and then whisk, your filling will be riddled with cornstarch lumps.
*Dairy-free heavy cream can typically be found near the coffee creamers and traditional heavy creams. I like Country Crock and Trader Joe's brand.
