Vegan Peppermint Matcha Chocolate Pie

Vegan Peppermint Matcha Chocolate Pie. No-bake, gluten-free, & made with superfoods!

Happy Holidays, friends! I hope yours were special. I celebrated with this amazingly festive Vegan Peppermint Matcha Chocolate Pie! This epic dessert is no-bake, gluten-free, and made with superfoods. It’s the perfect treat for the week between Christmas and New Years.

The minty chocolate flavors are flavorful and festive, without feeling overly indulgent. The no-bake chocolate cookie crust is made with hemp seeds, oats, and maple syrup. The creamy cheesecake style filling is made with one of my absolute favorite products- Nature’s Charm coconut matcha sauce!

The coconut matcha sauce is made with high quality matcha and some of the creamiest, most delicious coconut milk in the world. Along with the sauce to flavor and sweeten, I added a touch of peppermint extract to flavor the filling. Frozen spinach adds to the color and nutritional benefits of this dessert! I promise, you can’t even taste it.

After a quick freeze, the peppermint matcha chocolate pie is topped with Nature’s Charm coconut fudge sauce for even more chocolatey goodness. I love the combination of chocolate and mint, and the matcha takes it over the top! I can’t be mad at a hemp cookie crust either.

Overall this dessert is a fantastic way to indulge, while prepping for a healthy New Year. If you’re in the US and can’t find the matcha sauce, you can swap it out for matcha powder and Nature’s Charm sweetened condensed coconut milk.
