Vegan Apple Pie

Cultural Context

Vegan apple pie is a modern twist on the classic American dessert, traditionally made with butter and eggs. This version celebrates the same comforting flavors with plant-based ingredients, making it accessible for those following a vegan lifestyle. Apple pie has long been a symbol of American culture, often associated with family gatherings and holidays. Today, variations abound, reflecting diverse dietary preferences while preserving the essence of this beloved dish.

1

To make vegan apple pie, line a 9-inch pan with one of the pie crusts, and set aside.

2

Preheat oven to 425 F.

3

Peel and slice the apples (watch the video above to see a size visual).

4

Toss in a large bowl with all remaining ingredients.

5

Transfer to the crust - the filling should tower over the top.

6

Place second crust on top, and crimp the edges of the two crusts together with your fingers or a fork.

7

Cut a few slits into the crust to allow steam to escape.

8

To prevent burnt edges, cover just the outer rim of the pan with a ring of aluminum foil, leaving the middle of the pie exposed.

9

Bake on the oven center rack for 40 minutes, or until crust is lightly browned and apple filling is hot and bubbly.

10

Let cool. The pie can sit out overnight (loosely covered), or leftovers can be covered and refrigerated for up to 5 days.
