Holidays (Raw pumpkin pie)

Oh the holidays. Generally a "dieters" demise.  BUT, for me, I want to make healthy eating an every day lifestyle, not a strict "diet."
So, for thanksgiving I made a raw pumpkin pie. And holy cow.

It was so amazingly tasty! Dare I say I preferred it over all the other pies?!!!  Because I did!

And it was so so easy too! The nice thing about raw desserts is they generally require no baking.

So here's the recipe!

Filling Ingredients:

• 3/4 Cup Pumpkin Puree
• 1/2 Cup Cashew Butter
• 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
• 1 Tsp Cinnamon
• 1/4 Tsp Ginger
• 1/8 Tsp Cloves
• 3 Packets Stevia
• 2 Tbsp Agave (Honey, Maple Syrup or Stevia to make this no-sugar)
• Dash of Salt

Crust Ingredients:

• 1 Cup Shredded Coconut
• 1 1/4 Cup Pecans + Extra for Topping
• 1 Cup Pitted Dates
• 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract

Directions:

1. Using your small food processor bowl and blade blend all pie filling ingredients until smooth and set aside.
2. Using your large food processor bowl and blade process all crust ingredients until dough like consistency with visible chunks of nut (setting aside extra pecans for topping).
3. Grease an 8×8 baking pan or glass dish with a healthy oil.
4. Press crust mixture evenly into baking dish.
5. Top with pie filling using a spoon or spatula to make sure the filling is evenly distributed over the crust.
6. Add extra pecans over the top. 
7. Cover with saran wrap and freeze overnight.
8. When you’re ready to serve remove from the freezer, cut into squares and serve immediately.
