Apple Pie Crust
Ingredients:
- 1 cup raw walnuts
- 1 tsp. vanilla flavor by Frontier
- ½ cup pitted honey dates, soaked
- ½ tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp. Himalayan salt
Filling Ingredients:
- 6 Granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 1 Tbs. freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tsps ground cinnamon
- 1 cup pitted and soaked honey dates
- ½ cup agave
- 1/8 tsp. Himalayan salt
Directions for the crust:
Place the walnuts, vanilla flavor, dates, cinnamon, and salt in a food processor, and process until the mixture holds together and forms dough.
Press into a 9-inch pie pan to form a crust.
Directions for the filling:
Place the apples in a large bowl. Sprinkle with the lemon juice and 1 Tbs. of the cinnamon, and toss until evenly coated. Place the dates, agave, and remaining 1 tsp. cinnamon, and salt in a blender. Add a very small amount of filtered water, just enough to facilitate blending, and process until smooth. Add to the apples, and toss until evenly distributed. Spoon into the prepared crust. Slice, and serve.

This is the BEST apple pie EVER. Made it for my extended family over New Year’s Eve (along with some raw whole milk whipped cream) and everyone– even the non-raw members– couldn’t get enough of it.
1 caveat: I used large apples and had way too much filling (I mean, we ate it, but…). Could someone specify either apple size or weight or quantity of sliced apples (eg: 1 cup)?

I really want to change my eating habits. I am having health issues and it seems to get worse. With that said I have been looking into raw food diets….my problem is 85% of the stuff is gross. Mushrooms, veggies I can’t spell or say, and the recipes have things in there that are way to expensive. So what can I do? I like carrots,cucumber,tomato,green onion,romain lettuce, raw spinach,raw cabbage,broccili,cauliflour. I love most fruits grown here in America. So am I a lost cause? I hope not, any ideas?
