How to Prepare Easy Date Caramel Pecan Pie [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

To Make the Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Line a pie dish with parchment paper or lightly grease the bottom of the dish.
  3. Add the oats and pecans in a food processor. Process about 30 seconds.
  4. Add 1/4 cup of coconut milk and vanilla. Process until the dough sticks together.
  5. Add 1-2 more tablespoons of coconut milk if it's too dry.
  6. Press the dough on the bottom and the sides of the pie dish.
  7. Bake for 10 minutes.

To Make the Date Caramel

  1. In the same food processor, add dates and coconut milk.
  2. Blend until smooth or for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Spread the caramel evenly on the crust.
  4. Chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours so the pie stays together better when cut.
