Subj : St. Vivian 03 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Sun Jul 25 2021 17:35:02 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Vivian's Raw Pie Categories: Fruits, Nuts, Grains Yield: 6 Servings 1 c Nuts; whatever you like 3/4 c Shredded coconut 1/4 c Flax seed; fine ground) 12 Dates 2 tb Honey +=OR=+ 2 tb Agave nectar 8 oz Unsweetened coconut milk Fresh soft fruit; a variety Grind nuts & seeds in food processor. They should measure at least a cup AFTER they've been ground. Add ground flax & 1/4 c shredded coconut. Add dates a few at a time. Careful, they can stick to food processor blade. When dates are finely chopped mix in with a fork 1 TB honey or agave and just a little coconut milk (maybe a quarter of the can)- a little at a time until you reach a sticky consistency that can be patted into a pie pan. * Note: You may not even need the coconut milk if your dates are really soft. The original recipe had none- I just added it because mine always seems too dry. Slice fruits in thin slices and layer on top of crust: bananas first, then whatever else you're using. Save a layer of your prettiest fruits; kiwi, berries, or star fruit- or whatever you want- for the last step. Take whatever mushy fruit you have leftover (bruised strawberries, overripe pears, papaya, or banana all work well) & blend in food processor (with a little coconut milk if you like) until smooth. consistency should be a little thinner than applesauce. pour this evenly over the pie. Take your decorative fruits reserved for the top layer (toss them in a little agave if you like for a glazed look) and arrange prettily on top. Sprinkle top lightly with remaining coconut shreds. Freezing for an hour or so helps with the slicing, or you can slice & eat right away or refrigerate. This pie is definitely best the first day :-).
