Easy 4 Ingredient Vegan Sugar Free Cashew Butter Pie
Hello & Happy Wednesday
When it comes to nut butters, there are countless varieties today. You can stick to the standard peanut butter, or venture out into almond butter or my new favorite cashew! The one thing you’ll notice when working with alternatives to peanut butter, is the consistency is different. The product is much thicker with a greater amount of oil to compensate for it. That being said it can be somewhat tricky to work with when baking.
When dreaming of a fab nut butter concept, my mind went to a minimalist cookie, but those are a dime a dozen and typically only work when you introduce egg into the mix. So I was on to the next best thing, pie! While I’m not big on peanut butter (truth), I love a good peanut butter pie. I also knew that you could easily recreate this staple concept sans animal products and with NOW’s Nutty Infusions® cashew butter cashew butter. Come to find out, you absolutely can, and it’s so easy!
I’ve loved NOW since my mother ran a holistic health store in grade school. They are one of the few brands that have stood the test of time and have evolved to offer a wide variety of products today. One of my new favorites is their Nutty Infusions™ Nut Butters and the monk fruit drops! The  butters come in a variety of flavors and I love the drops as they make sweetening everything from baked goods to coffee or tea, a breeze!
Not familiar with monk fruit?
It’s a zero-calorie liquid sweetener that also has a low glycemic impact. Monk fruit is known as Luo Han Guo, is NOW’s  newest zero-calorie sweetener. Monk fruit is significantly sweeter than sugar, up to 200 times as sweet and is a fantastic alternative to sugar in beverages. NOW Real Food® Organic Monk Fruit Liquids come in a variety of flavors, has less of an aftertaste and goes perfectly in this pie!
