Prepare the Crust
- In a medium bowl, combine vegan graham cracker crumbs, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup until evenly mixed. The mixture should hold together when pressed. Transfer this crumbly blend into a greased pie pan, pressing it firmly into the bottom and up the sides. Bake at 350°F for about 8 minutes or until lightly golden. Allow the crust to cool completely before adding the filling.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together full-fat coconut milk, almond milk, strong brewed coffee, cornstarch, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Heat this mixture over medium heat, stirring continuously for about 7–10 minutes, until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency.
- Carefully pour the thickened filling into the cooled crust, smoothing it out with a spatula for an even surface. Let the pie cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Afterward, cover it and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.
- Once the pie is set, remove it from the refrigerator and add a generous layer of coconut whipped cream on top. For an elegant touch, dust the pie with cocoa powder or espresso powder. Slice into wedges and serve chilled.

Notes
Ensure the filling is well thickened before pouring into the crust. Allow the pie to chill for at least 2 hours for the best texture.
