Favorite (Easy!) Holiday Pie Recipes

It's that time of year again! Whether you are throwing a holiday party, baking cookies for the neighbors or just putting together a nice home-cooked meal for the family, the holiday season is baking season! Nothing tops off a holiday meal like a homemade pie, but that doesn't mean you have to spend hours in the kitchen making one. Here are a few stress-free easy pie recipes to add a special finishing touch to your meal:

Easy Homemade Apple Pie Recipe
This recipe uses a pre-made pie crust and very few ingredients, so it's very simple to prepare. Chopping the apples does take some time however, so if you've got an apple slicer you may want to use that to save time.

Sweet Potato Pie with Tofu Recipe
With just a few ingredients, this recipe is very quick and easy to make. You can have it in the oven in ten minutes flat, five if you're quick! Plus, because it uses tofu to carry the sweet potato flavor, you're getting a healthy boost of soy protein too!

Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie
This super easy chocolate peanut butter tofu pie, similar to a French silk pie, is vegan and can be prepared in just a few minutes. Yummmm.

Frozen Cool Whip and Yogurt Pie
You can "whip" together this easy Cool Whip and Yogurt Pie in five minutes and it lasts for several days in the freezer.

Vegan "Hip Whip" and Soy Yogurt Pie
This vegan version of the Cool Whip and Yogurt Pie uses vegan whipped cream, which you can find at larger and well-stocked natural foods stores. This is an easy five minute low fat recipe for vegan "hip whip" pie. Just mix, freeze, and serve!
