I had some serious doubts about this one before I made it. Add doubts gone- this is some seriously amazing pie! Anyone would enjoy this pie. Tastes really decadent and rich, but there is no dairy and barely any sugar! Just raw honey. I would totally take this to a party or made for Thanksgiving dinner dessert. There are three parts to this pie. The crust, filling, and topping.

Ingredients:

Crust:

• 1 cup almond butter
• 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 2/3 cup almond meal
• 1 heaping tablespoon of coconut cream (If you dont have or cant find this, its not going to make or break your crust…)
• 1 heaping tablespoon raw honey
• pinch of salt

Filling:

• 1 1/2 cups of unsalted raw cashews
• 1/2 cup coconut oil
• 1/2 cup raw honey
• 2-3 teaspoons of lemon juice
• 5-6 tablespoons of canned coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping:

• 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
• 2 tablespoons coconut milk
• 1 heaping tablespoon raw honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/8 tsp ground ginger
• 1/8 tsp ground cloves
• (I didnt have the last 2 but I did have pumpkin pie seasoning so I added 1/2 tsp of that)

Instructions:

1. First the crust! Add all ingredients together in a food processor and mix until completely combined. Line your pie tin or baking dish with some plastic wrap. I learned this the hard way last time with my lemon tart… the crust sticks to the pan. So line with plastic wrap and then when you cut in, just lift the plastic with it and voila! Smooth the ingredients until everything is even and smooth. Put this in the refrigerator until you make the filling.
2. Add your cashews to the food processor and mix until they are super smooth. Add your coconut oil, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and honey and puree until combined.
3. Add your coconut milk 1 tablespoon at a time until everything is broken down completely and it looks like a soupy paste.
4. Pour your filling into your crust and spread evently. Put in the freezer for at least 1-2 hours.
5. For the topping mix all of the ingredients together. When your pie is nice and hard, spread the topping on it so its nice and smooth. Put back in the freezer for another 30 minutes.
6. Cut into pie slices or bars, pull on the saran wrap and they pop right our perfectly! I keep mine in the fridge but I am sure you could also freeze this and bring with you to a party. YUM YUM.
