No “Key” Lime Pie w/ Cashew Date Crust
My kids and grand-kids love this pie as much as I do. It’s cool, fresh, and a perfect summer dessert.
1/2 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
35 pitted deglet dates
1 large avocado
1 tsp vanilla
Soak dates in juices for 8 hours. Add to blender jar along with avocado and vanilla. Blend until smooth. Pour over prepared Cashew Date Pie Crust. Let the pie set up for 4 hours in the refrigerator or freeze if desired. Take out of freezer 1/2 hour before serving.
Cashew Date Crust (for one pie)
3/4 cup cashews or other nut
3/4 cup oats
10 small pitted dates
1 tsp vanilla
Chop finely in a food processor until crumbled mixture starts to hold together. Press enough crust mix to cover an 8″ pie pan. There will be some left over. Roll into balls for a yummy treat.
