An American classic, especially for Thanksgiving, the Pumpkin Pie by Theera: Healthy Bake Room offers a healthy, vegan twist. The filling for this pie is creamy and flavourful, with just the right amount of spice and sweetness. Meanwhile, the crust is sturdy, flakey and holds up to the filling. As a surprise, there’s even a layer of spiced apple between the pumpkin and crust. Thick vegan caramel compiles the treat.

The Banoffee pie from Theera is the perfect treat for those with more than a little sweet tooth. Bananas can be a little boring by themselves but sweet, thick toffee, light fluffy cream and a crunchy biscuit base really frame the natural sweetness of the fruit so well. In addition, Theera’s vegan Banoffee is wholly plant-based, gluten-free, nut-free and naturally sweetened, but don’t let that fool you—it’s still incredibly rich.
