Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 ½ cups gluten-free graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup melted coconut oil or butter
- 2 tablespoons sugar or sweetener of choice
- 1 can (14 oz) full-fat coconut milk, chilled
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- Red food coloring (optional for holiday flair)
- Whipped cream for topping (dairy or non-dairy)
- Candy canes or chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions to Make These Pies:
- Start by prepping your crust. In a mixing bowl, combine gluten-free graham cracker crumbs with melted coconut oil and sugar. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of mini pie pans or muffin tins. Make sure it’s packed tightly! Place the crusts in the fridge to set while you prepare the filling.
- In another bowl, whip together the chilled coconut milk (the solid part only), powdered sugar, and peppermint extract until smooth and fluffy. If you want a festive touch, add a drop or two of red food coloring and swirl it in for that peppermint candy look.
- Once your crusts are ready, fill each one generously with the peppermint filling. Smooth the tops and pop them back in the fridge to chill for at least 2-3 hours.
- When you’re ready to serve, remove the pies from the fridge, top with whipped cream, and sprinkle crushed candy canes or chocolate shavings on top for that extra festive touch!
And there you have it, y’all! A delightful dessert that’s sure to please everyone, even those gluten-free folks in the family. Enjoy your mini peppermint pies, and happy holidays!
