THE RECIPE
Vegan apple pie with ginger & agave
A fully plant-based double-crust pie with flaky pastry and juicy apple filling. Warm ginger and mellow agave syrup make the filling aromatic without becoming heavy.

- 3Assemble
Line a pie dish with two-thirds of the dough, add the filling and dot with vegan butter.
- 4Cover
Make a lattice or full lid with the remaining dough. Brush with oat milk and sprinkle with sugar.
