Raw salted pecan pie

This pie was such a hit. We ate it until the last crumb. And after that I basically licked the plate. And it was so easy to make as well!


The base:
1 cup dates
1/2 cup pecan nuts
1/2 cup almonds

The caramel:
2 tbsp coconut oil
2 tbsp raw nut butter (I used un-raw peanut butter)
2 tbsp lucuma powder
2 tbsp agave syrup
1/2 tsp sea salt

On top:
1/4 cup pecan nuts (chopped)
sprinkle sea salt

For the crust, mix the almonds and pecans in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the dates and process until done. Press the mixture on a serving plate or a cake tin lined with baking paper / cling film. Put into the freezer to cool and wait.

Make the caramel by melting the coconut oil in water bath and add other ingredients. Let it firm a bit before applying on top of the cake. Add the pecan bits and some sea salt.


The recipe is from Keeping Healthy Getting Stylish -blog.
