I’m continuing my obsession with super easy vegan recipes with this pie recipe. Truth be told, I needed a super easy pie recipe that required minimal ingredients for my Easy Vegan Thanksgiving Dinner made with only 10 Products post. But this pie is more than just easy, it’s delicious, too!
What Makes This Recipe Shine?
- Using a chocolate pudding mix adds lots of chocolate flavor, and keeps this recipe easy to make
- Creamy peanut butter is added to the pie, infusing each bite with rich chocolate and peanut butter flavors
- An Oreo pie crust adds a crunchy texture for the crust, a perfect foundation for any pie.
