How to Prepare Creamy Chocolate Pie [Vegan, Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free]
For the Base:
- Soak the dates in a little water for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Line the bottom of a spring base of 15 cm in diameter with parchment paper or grease it with coconut oil. This will make it easier when you unmold.
- Remove the dates from the water but do not throw it away, it may be necessary.
- In a chopper or food processor, add the dried fruit and oat flakes and chop until fine but not into flour.
- Add the dates and agave and chop everything until you get a dough that comes off the walls of the food processor. If necessary, add a little water from the date soaking to facilitate the process, but do not add too much to avoid getting soft.
- Line the bottom of the pan with this mixture, compacting well.
- Put it in the fridge.
For the Filling:
- Drain excess water from the silky tofu packet. This step is extremely important to get a good texture. Put the tofu in a mesh strainer and let it drain for at least 20 minutes. Squeeze it lightly from time to time to release more water.
- Melt the chocolate in a bain-marie on the stove or, if you like, in the microwave.
- Place the tofu, melted chocolate and the remaining filling ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into the base of the pie and use a spatula to smooth the surface.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
- To unmold, run a knife around the pie before removing it from the spring pan.
- If desired, top with extras such as grated chocolate, berries, or vegan whipped cream before serving.
- Store the pie in the fridge for 4 days or freeze.
Notes
- This pie should be made the day before serving, so you have time to solidify completely. - The dates used should preferably be Medjool. You can also substitute dried figs. - Rice jelly can be replaced by agave jelly, maple syrup. - The tofu used should be silky. Regular tofu does not have the same effect. - Xylitol can be substituted for coconut sugar or regular sugar if desired. Coconut sugar will slightly alter the flavor.
