Apple Pie w/o the Oven

I have been reading a lot about raw food and a lot of Raw Food books. Saw some pie recipes and was intrigued. Since it is Fall and apples are in season I decided to try a Raw apple pie. And I was happily surprised. I will share this on Thanksgiving.

Apple Pie ( raw)
Crust
2 cups raw almonds
pinch of sea salt
1-3 tsp EVOO
2-3 dates
Filling
3-5 apples
4-5 dates
Pinch of sea salt
2-3 tsp Flax or Hemp Oil
1. Grind almonds in processor into a powder
2. Add salt, dates, and oil and blend until smooth and clumping
3. Spread almond crust on bottom of pie plate (spread a drop of EVOO first)
4. Put pie crust in freezer to set up.
*5. Process apples until smooth
6. add salt and dates and process
7. Slowly add oil until "creamy"
8. Pour into crust and cover with plastic and place in fridge

9. Dig in and SHARE with others.....
