Ingredients
Crust:
- 1 cup pitted dates
- 1 cup raw pecans
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 Tbsp almond butter
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
Filling:
- 1 cup pitted dates
- 2 Tbsp almond butter
- 1 cup raw pecans
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ tsp salt
Optional: 1 cup dark chocolate chips & additional pecans to top
Directions
- Add all ingredients for the crust to a food processor and process to a crumb-like consistency. The mixture should stick together easily when you press it together. (NOTE: chop the dates into small pieces before adding them to the food processor- this will help the mixture come together more easily.) Transfer crust into a pie dish, and press it down.
- Optional- Add ½ cup dark chocolate chips to microwave safe bowl and microwave in 30 second increments until melted. Pour over crust and spread out into an even layer.
- Add all ingredients for the filling into a food processor and process until combined. Once chocolate layer has cooled, pour filling on top and spread into even layer. Top with additional pecans and chocolate as desired. Pie can be eaten immediately, but refrigerating for one hour will make serving easier.
