Week 46 was a total experiment. The Pie was a pumpkin-maple pie with a baked oat crust. This recipe was out of a vegan cookbook called, Oh She Glows. It was surprisingly good. Not sure what I expected but it was a tasty alternative to traditional pumpkin pie. The pie gets its creaminess from cashews...you soak them for a few hours and then blend in the blender and poof, they turn into cream. It's a big like magic! Anyways, the pie was good. The crust tasted a bit like lara bars but if you like lara bars, it's a plus. The recipe has you put the pie in the freezer and serve it cold. It was a nice alternative to the regular pumpkin pie. We all thought it was pretty good. P wasn't as keen but Brian really liked it...he likes pumpkin and lara bars, so all around win for him. I would probably still make a regular pumpkin pie unless I was really watching calories!
