SUCH a fantastic recipe. My husband is a pie expert (he is not vegan) and said it was really good pie. I also found the corn starch/arrowroot mixture way too thick and added (by feel) more water. The pie still turned out great i.e. not too thick and not too runny. I am making another pie as I write this. Oh, and the pie crust of yours was also amazing. I used vegan Earth Balance instead of shortening. Thank you. This is a keeper!

Hi! One of my favorite hobbies is cooking. I prefer to cook vegetarian foods and, every once in a while, I try to make some of my sistas favorite vegan recipes. I spend my time riding bicycles, working on other peoples bikes, snowshoeing, snowboarding, reading, camping, and playin' b-ball. If I could do whatever I wanted to do, I'd probably spend the bulk of my time traveling, learning new crafts, and hanging with my amigos.
