This was one of my favorite recipes when I first went raw and I cannot seem to find it anywhere...I am pretty sure it was in the book Raw Power

and it included dates, I remember that

if anyone knows I'd appreciate it :) I already did a search on this site and google and didn't find anything

After much Googling, I found this one... I don't know if it's the same as what you found, but thought it sounded good. :)

Apple pie spice should be available in the herb/spice section of the supermarket. Or you can make your own:

Apple Pie Spice

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom

I am looking forward to trying this recipe too. Fresh apple juice is amazing ... so much better than the store-bought stuff. For some reason, it has never occurred to me to make a smoothie with apple juice, but I bet it is really tasty!

Hi

I am new here; I am definitely into the whole raw thing.
I made this and it tasted wonderful.

Pumpkin seeds soaked
raisins soaked
caraway seeds

Blend all ingredients with some of the raisin soak water.

This would complement any dish; sweet or savoury.

Enjoy!!
