Haupia coconut pie is a dessert that is gluten free, dairy free, egg free, and soy free. I based it on a favorite Hawaiian dessert haupia, made with coconut milk or cream. It has a pudding-like texture without using dairy or eggs.Haupia coconut pie with walnut and date crust is a sweet treat with Hawaiian roots. Dairy free, gluten free, egg free, and soy free. You can flavor with fruit juice.

  • 1 cup walnut halves
  • 4 pitted soft dates
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1/16 tsp sea salt
    Filling
  • 1 can coconut cream (about 13 oz.), not shaken

Notes

Tips: 1) I use Thai style coconut cream (from the international aisle at the grocery store). Let it sit in the pantry for a while to separate the cream from the milk, or chill in the refrigerator. 2) I find that pitting my dates then allowing them to sit in a little warm water while I'm prepping makes them a little stickier. 3) You may want to try pumpkin pie spice instead of cinnamon for the crust. 4) Arrowroot is a starch made from the arrowroot tuber and has less taste than cornstarch. It is gluten-free, grain-free, and is used in paleo diets.
