That’s the kind of maths I like!
I’ve been aching to try this recipe out for a long time, as tofu is very cheap in Tokyo (one of the very few things). So I was very excited when I found a vegan ready-made pie crust in the cupboard. Must have been my mum getting overexcited in the foreign food store.
This recipe is a great dessert for when you have vegan guests over for dinner, who aren’t stereotypical salad-munchers. Trust me, no veggie/vegan likes to be given salad for dinner. Or an apple for dessert.
Vanilla Tofucake
Ingredients:
400g firm tofu, drained
100g caster sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp white vinegar
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 ready-made vegan pie crust (I used a Graham’s one)
Preheat the oven to 350F or 180C and blend all the ingredients in a food processor (except the pie crust, obviously). Pour the mixture into the pie crust, and bake for 15 minutes. The top should be golden-y/brown, but make sure that the pie crust doesn’t burn! Chill in the fridge for a few hours before serving (I recommend at least four).
Enjoy with a berry coulis, and fresh fruit! (But not an apple, that’s not on.)
xoxo.

That sounds really easy to do! Maybe you cant make it lemon pie adding some lemon juice!! Wow! Thanks for sharing (:
Oooh that’s a good idea! I expect if you add cocoa it could be a chocolate pie! :)
