Raw Apple Pie

Ingredients

Filling:

5 peeled Royal Gala Apples, sliced thinly

1 lemon, juiced

2 tbsp ground cinnamon

2 tbsp maple syrup

½ tsp ground ginger

½ tsp ground nutmeg

Pie Crust:

1 cup raw pecans

1 cup raw cashews

½ cup pitted honey dates

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp ground cinnamon

½ tsp coconut oil

Topping:

¼ cup raw pecans

¼ cup cashews

¼ cup oat flakes

¼ cup dried cranberries

Directions

Soak the pecans, cashews and dates in warm water for 20 minutes for the pie crust.

Slice the apples with a mandolin or food processor and marinate them in the lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and maple syrup for 30 minutes.

Drain the nuts and dates and combine in a food processor with the cinnamon and vanilla. Pulse the mixture until finely crumbled and sticking together. Coat the pie pan with coconut oil and then mold the pie crust to the bottom. Place in the freezer for 20 minutes.

For the topping, put pecans, cashews, oat flakes and cranberries into the food processor and pulse until fine.

Drain the excess liquid and then pour the pie filling into the frozen pie crust, sprinkling the crumble topping over pie. Slice and serve.
