More than a Paleo Pie
This pie is paleo, but it’s also a vegan pie! It is a dairy free, gluten free and refined sugar free dessert, so you can definitely enjoy it without the guilt.
To have any of these denominations there are a few things this dessert shouldn’t have:
Paleo: Needs to be sugar free, naturally gluten free and dairy free
Vegan: it can’t have any food derived from animals
Dairy Free: no dairy
Gluten free: No gluten
Refined Sugar free: it can’t be sweetened with any refined sugars
Ingredients you’ll need
- Pecans
- Pitted dates
- Coconut oil
- Sea salt
- Unsweetened chocolate 100%, melted
- Pure maple syrup
- Vanilla extract
- Sea salt
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips (Paleo friendly)
How to make it
This is a super simple dessert, no need to bake, and almost everything is done with a food processor.
Crust:
Grease a 9-in pie pan. Place all of your ingredients into a food processor and blend, until a paste is formed; press into your greased pan and refrigerate
Filling:
lace all of your filling ingredients -except chocolate chips- into your food processor (no need to wash) and blend; again, a thick paste will form. Fold in your chocolate chips and place on top of your pie crust, smoothing it out with the back of a spoon
Garnish
Garnish with pecans and chocolate chips and refrigerate for 3 hours before serving
