Summer Avocado Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Blend avocados, sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese, lime juice, and lemon juice in a blender until smooth; pour into prepared pie crust. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Top with whipped cream to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Coat the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate with vegetable oil. Pulse the graham crackers and sugar in a food processor until finely ground. Add the vegetable oil and coconut oil and pulse until the mixture looks like wet sand. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie plate. Bake until set, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack; let cool completely.
• Clean out the food processor. Add the avocados, cream of coconut, lime zest and juice and salt and puree until smooth. Pour the mixture into a large bowl and fold in the whipped topping until combined. Spoon the filling into the crust and smooth the top. Freeze until firm, about 6 hours. Serve with more whipped topping.

Steps:

• Blend avocados, sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese, lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a blender until smooth; pour into the graham cracker crust.
• Mix sour cream, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl; pour over avocado filling. Refrigerate pie until set, about 4 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly butter the inside of a 9-inch (23-cm) springform pan.
• Make the crust: Crumble the crackers and cookies into a medium bowl. Use a pestle or the bottom of a heavy bottle to crush them into fine crumbs. Add ⅓ cup (75 ml) of the condensed milk and stir until very well combined. (You can grind the crumbled graham crackers and mix them with the condensed milk in a food processor if you prefer.) Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the pan. Bake until the crust looks a little darker and smells sweet and toasty, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool the crust in the pan on a wire rack.
• One at a time, cut an avocado in half lengthwise. Twist the halves to separate them. Hold the half with the pit in one hand. Holding the knife in your other hand, rap the knife blade into the pit to lodge it there. Twist the knife to loosen and remove the pit. Use a large spoon to scoop the avocado flesh onto a chopping board, discarding the skins. Coarsely chop the avocados.
• Add the chopped avocados, cream cheese, remaining condensed milk, and salt to a food processor. (You can combine the filling in a blender instead but you may need to work in batches.) Grate the zest of 1 lemon and set aside. Squeeze the zested lemon and the limes (you should have about ⅓ cup/75 ml lemon), reserving the remaining lemon for garnish. Add the juice to the avocados and process the mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Spread the filling in the cooled crust and sprinkle with the grated lemon zest. Cover the pan and freeze until the filling is firm, at least 6 hours or preferably overnight.
• Let the frozen cake stand at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before slicing. Dipping a thin knife into hot water between each cut, slice the cake into wedges and serve, topping each serving with freshly grated lemon zest.

Steps:

• Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush an 8-inch springform pan with some of the melted butter. Mix the remaining butter with the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt in a bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pan. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool completely on a rack.
• Make the filling: Halve and pit the avocados, then scoop out the flesh and chop. Transfer to a bowl, add the cream cheese and beat with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add the condensed milk, lime and lemon juices, and the salt and beat until fluffy, scraping the bowl as needed. Pour the filling into the crust, press a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface and chill at least 4 hours.
• Remove the springform ring and slice the pie. Garnish with whipped cream or confectioners' sugar, if desired, and serve immediately (the top will start to brown as the pie sits).

Steps:

• Combine first 3 ingredients in blender.
• Blend until completely smooth.
• Pour into piecrust.
• Refrigerate at least 2 hours.
• Top with whipping cream before serving.
