The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The RawtarianThis is a crustless pie, which means it's that much quicker to whip up since there is only one step!
If you don't do honey you can do agave nectar or maple syrup instead of the honey. Use the same measurements.
This recipe does include bananas for both sweetness and creaminess, so it does have a slight banana taste, but it's not over-powering, especially if you use bananas that are at the peak of perfection.

Raw chocolate cream pie recipe
Another fantastic and very easy recipe -- even better on day 2 and 3. We used Whoopie Pie molds (got ours from BB&B). The recipe was the exact amount to fill 12 molds. We froze overnight. Removal was simple by wetting a spatula... transferred to a sealed container and stored in the freezer. Absolute perfect-sized dessert topped with any kind of berry. Thank you, again!

Hi RawGemGypsy!
Great question - in this recipe, either solid or liquid is fine. Because it's going to get blended well in the blender and warmed, even if it is solid it should warm up and liquify during the process! (Ideally, liquid is best, but I wouldn't bother melting it first since it should melt when blended.)

Raw chocolate cream pie recipe
Hey Laura-Jane, sounds good this recipe! I have all ingredients at home, just not bananas. Would using avocado instead for creaminess be okay as well?

Raw chocolate cream pie recipe
This was delicious. Instead of making a pie i actually put it in individual flower pot jars and served sort of like a mousse. Sorry it got eaten before i photographed it

Hello, I’ve made this cream pie as well, and probably added a little extra lemon juice than required, and thereafter I read the comments where some brought up the tartness issue, so I added a few dried cranberries as toppings after pouring the mixture in the pan as well as a few blueberries, and I think it’s going to be just the perfect sweettart chocolate pie in about 5 hrs... ??

Hi,
I love your recipes. Just one question, what is the role of avocado? In your chocolate mousse there is an avocado, I would have except one here too. Why not include it here?
Many thanks

Hi Julie,
Very astute question!
In my chocolate mousse recipe, avocado is used for creaminess.
In this recipe, cashews are used for creaminess -so no avocado required.
Sometimes I opt for cashews instead of avocados because I find people (like me) almost always have cashews in the house, but they might not have an avocado ready to go... I try to make my recipes easy to make with ingredients that people usually hand on hand.
I hope this answers your question, Julie!

Hi there,
If i didn't want the banana taste, could I use anything else? maybe avocado?

Hi Lissajayne! Perhaps you could try this one instead :) You can do the chocolate layer only if that's easier:

Have you tried this with less lemon? I'm not sure why but mine turned out a bit tart.
The Rawtarian

Hi Alex! I like it a bit tart, sweetly tart! You could reduce the lemon by half if you want it sweeter and less tart!

What could I use in place of bananas?
The Rawtarian
Jun 17, 2015
Hi Tracey! Sorry, no. Substituting the bananas in this recipe will alter it too much :)

hi, do you soak the cashews first? Can't wait to try it!

Raw chocolate cream pie recipe
Loved it. Absolutely delishy and super easy to make. Next time I will add less lemon (it overpowered a bit). I used dark choc instead of cocoa powder since didn't have any. Thank you!! I am in love with your recipes.

Due to tree nut/peanut/coconut allergy in my family, I need help making this chocolate cream pie recipe? I would like to replace coconut oil with olive oil and how important is cashew to the recipe. I can eat sunflower seeds
The Rawtarian
Sep 23, 2014
Hi Renee!!! Noooooooooo do not use olive oil instead of coconut oil.... PLEASE!! It won't work, it will taste NASTY!
:)
Also, sunflower seeds instead of cashews = no.... best to find another recipe.
Good luck!

Not my most favorite TRK recipe but it is easy, tasty, great texture and looks great. I'm going to try the avocado substitute to try to bring the sugars down.

Didn't dig the flavor? Too much banana? Inquiring minds want to know :)

Laura Jane, Not sure if it's too much banana or lemon juice or what but for sure none of it went to waste! I do love having a healthy dessert already made in the freezer. I'll update you when I experiment with it next time.
