I came up with this recipe since my girls wanted peanut butter syrup on their waffles. It tastes great. incredibly long time when kept in the refrigerator. Sliced bananas are served on top of the pancakes. For more flavor, try substituting coconut extract for vanilla.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine graham cracker crumbs, flaked coconut, melted butter, and vanilla in a bowl. Press firmly into the bottom of an 8-inch pie or tart pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until crust is set and slightly golden, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
- Prepare filling: Blend tofu with cream cheese in a bowl until smooth; this takes a while. Add Key lime juice and continue blending. Add pudding mix, sugar, lime zest, and lemon extract; blend well. Pour into the cooled crust.
- Place in the refrigerator until well chilled, at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Prepare whipped cream: Chill a stainless steel mixing bowl for 20 minutes. Remove from the freezer and add coconut milk, sugar, vanilla, and rum. Beat with an electric mixer or whisk until fluffy.
- To serve, slice pie and top with whipped cream.
- You can use any vegan cookies for the crust, such as gingersnaps or lemon snaps. If you use lemon snaps, add 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract to the crust.
- Do not substitute light coconut milk for full-fat in the whipped cream.
