Could you use tofu instead of coconut milk?

I’m going to try this out. I like the idea of using coconut in the crust.

I was wondering if you have tried making this pie with a flavorful squash, such as kabucha squash?

I haven’t. I think the squash might be a little bland. Sweet potatoes are a bit more rich in flavor.

Could I use blanched almonds ( soaked) or white beans in place of cashews? Will it alter the flavor?

The blanched almonds would work but I think the beans would taste weird

Can you explain why you call out for deglet dates instead of medjool dates and if I can substitute medjool dates in this? Looks delicious.

You can use medjools. I use deglet because they are much more affordable.

What substitute would you recommend for the coconut in the crust? I can’t stand coconut 🤢

Almond flour
