28 Feb White Chocolate Chai Pie
This is a classic chickpea filling pie, but it has been stepped up to a whole other level!
I love the warm spicy chai flavours, and I love white chocolate, and I think they go together like a dream in this recipe. The crust is sweet and crunchy; the filling: smooth and rich. The fact that it really is completely healthy, high in protein, packed with veggies and low in calories in really just the cherry on top. Or the drizzle on top in this case hahaha!

Place granola in a bowl and crush using the bottom of a mug or a rolling pin. You want it fine but not a full on powder - you want to retain some crunch! Can blitz it briefly in a blender too.
Add remaining dry ingredients and mix.
Combine nut butter and milk in a bowl and microwave for 60 seconds. Mix. Microwave for 30 seconds. Mix. Watch to make sure it doesn't bubble over.
Pour your nut butter and milk mixture into your dry crust ingredients and mix. You might need to use your hands to form a rough ball.
Press mixture into a greased pie dish using hands.
