Directions:
|
Crust:
In food processor, combine first 4 ingredients and pulse until combined. Add the COLD vegan margarine in chunks and pulse until broken up to pea size chunks. 8 pulses is the average with my machine.
Add 5 Tbsp. of ice water and pulse again until moisture is just spread throughout the bowl. 4 pulses is the average with my machine. Dump into zip top bag and refridgerate at least 1/2 hour, up to 3 days in advance.
Roll out cold dough on lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Line pie plate with dough and cut off excess crust (there will be extra). Fold edges under to create a smooth edge. Cover with plastic and chill until ready to use.
Filling:
Combine the egg replace with the hot water and mix well. Combine all remaining ingredients with the egg replacer in a bowl and fold until well combined.
Pour into prepared pie crust and bake on middle rack of 375°F oven for an hour. Allow to cool completely before serving.
If you want to be "fancy", roll out the extra crust dough and cut out a design (like a pumpkin). Brush with water and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Bake the design on a cookie sheet for 15 minutes after the pie comes out of the oven. (I usually turn the oven off and cook it as the oven cools down.) Cool on a wire rack.
Place the crust design on the pie before serving.
