There’s something magical about summer peaches—their sun-kissed sweetness and irresistible aroma transport me straight to my childhood when we’d visit the local farmer’s market and stock up on baskets of the juiciest, ripest fruits.
That nostalgia inspired this No Bake Vegan Peach Cream Pie, a dessert that celebrates everything wonderful about peaches while keeping things easy, wholesome, and utterly delicious.
What sets this recipe apart isn’t just the lack of an oven—it’s the creamy cashew-based filling that pairs beautifully with the peaches, creating a luscious, silky texture that melts in your mouth. The crust, a mix of oats and almonds, brings a nutty crunch to every bite, perfectly balancing the pie’s rich creaminess.
Plus, this pie is completely plant-based and naturally sweetened, making it a guilt-free indulgence you can enjoy at any time. Did you know peaches are rich in antioxidants and vitamin C? That means you’re treating yourself while nourishing your body—talk about a win-win!
