Maple Pecan Pie
"Recipe courtesy of Vegan Pie in the Sky by Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Hope Romero/Da Capo Lifelong Books, 2011. This is the kind of pecan pie that has pecans resting in a sweet suspension, somewhere between gel and custard. We’re not going to make any apologies for the tofu in it . . . it works! This pie flies off the table at bake sales and makes even the most un-vegan Southerners weep with joy. Well, we think it’s joy. 1 recipe Single Pastry Crust, fit into a 9-inch pie plate..."
