A zingy, zesty and oh so delicious raw beegan pie… for those who still love sweet things, don’t have years to spend baking in the kitchen, and prefer to keep their sweet treats on the healthy side. Avocados are healthy fats loaded with nutrients, and they’re also pre-cursors to glutathione which is a master antioxidant needed for liver to detox.

Ever single ingredient in this pie is organic and comes from plant-based ingredients. Though due to the nuts, it’s going to be higher in omega 6’s so it’s not a pie you should attempt to live off of (obviously). Anyways, I’m going nuts in the kitchen this week making pies (pun intended) so I hope you enjoy this new creation. Oh and by the way, this is not complicated. The finished result is beautiful and looks impressive to guests, but you could easily whip this up in 30 minutes with a blender and food processor.

Crust / Base:

  • 1 cup macadamia nuts
  • Half cup shredded almond
  • 1 cup dried coconut
  • 14 dates, pitted
  • pinch or two of Himalayan or sea salt

Instructions: Combine together in a Vitamix and blend until it’s all stuck together and can form a ball in your hand. Press into a 9 inch pie pan firmly.
