Oatmeal Cream Pies // Vegan & Gluten Free

Recently I have been re-discovering the idea that because I have the freedom to eat whatever I want as long as its gluten & dairy-free! SO My friend from Feasting on fruit, my husband and I have been discussing some of our favorite childhood treats! I brought up the memory of going to youth group and always being greeted with a Little Debbie oatmeal cream pie! Now the love of a dessert that is NOT chocolate means a lot coming from a girl who keeps a 5lb bag of cocoa powder on hand at all times…

We decided it would be beneficial to everyone to make an at-home recipe that was vegan, gluten-free, and well, delicious!
