I had considered putting up a vegan strawberry-rhubarb pie tutorial today, but there are plenty of those already on the internet.
Vegan pie crust (coconut oil instead of butter – this one is SUBLIME, flaky and delicious!)
Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie (Martha Stewart, how can I compete with you?)
I did, however, take some food photos while I prepped my pie
What’s left of the strawberries after Cecilia (the three year old) “claimed” hers by taking little bites off of the ones she wanted.
Rhubarb is so beautiful!
I am lucky that this stuff just pops up in my backyard. Rhubarb is something that grew wild in my backyard when I was little and I have always loved a fresh pie. A simple and tasty way to feel luxurious and “homegrown country” at the same time.
I managed to find some local eateries that are known for exceptionally delicious vegan desserts. I’m adding them to my list of things to do. I definitely need more excuses to eat desserts 🙂
