Mini Peanut Butter Pies (vegan)

Time for some mini peanut butter chocolate pies! These small individual size pies were not only yummy, but perfectly portioned. They are vegan, gluten free, no bake + simple to put together. Since they are frozen, it was easy to have dessert for the week as I would just take one out + let it thaw for a few minutes.

Further Food Commentary:

I love the use of rolled oats as flour in this recipe. The fiber in oats has been linked to many health benefits including prevention of heart failure, cardiovascular support and stabilization of blood sugar. Remember the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) for fiber is 25g for women and 38g for men per day. Almond flour/meal is a gluten-free high protein flour that adds moisture to recipes due to the heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. It is also low GI because of its minimal sugar and carbohydrate content.
Bananas and peanut butter have too many health benefits to count. For starters, they are both chock full of potassium which is essential for maintaining normal blood pressure and heart function. They are often also paired together before strenuous pre-workouts to sustain blood sugar.
