White Chocolate Chai Pie

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!
