I love the tropical flavors of Mango and passion fruit pie! It’s like a vacation in a pie. This recipe is Vegan, gluten-free, soy free, refined sugar-free, plant-based (no processed ingredients), and super yummy!
The crust is made of oat flour and almond flour and the filling is creamy and dense thanks to the coconut cream and fresh mango. I wish I could wake up to a slice of this beauty every single day!
