Blueberry Pecan Pie (from Raw News Bites)

[Eva]

Blueberry Pecan Pie

Crust/Base Ingredients
2.5 cups pecans
.5 cup dates, soaked and pitted
1 T cinnamon

Filling Ingredients
4 cups blueberries
2 bananas
1 T agave or honey

Instructions
1/ Add only the pecans to a food processor, and process until they average about the size of a pea.
2/ Add the soaked dates and cinnamon to the mix and continue to process. Be careful not to process too long -- you want to make sure there is still some texture to your crust rather than a big glob of ingredients!
3/ Using a 2-piece pie pan (see column at right for tips on this), press the mixture in to form the crust.
4/ Blend the agave, bananas and only 2.5 cups of the blueberries together, then hand mix the remainder of the blueberries.
5/ Pour the whole mix into your crust, then refrigerate.

Eva,
I just finished making this beautiful Blueberry pie.
The Pecan crust is sooooo yummy. I had to take a taste of it before I pressed it in my pan. The crust gave me an idea also for a healthy raw bar that I'm going to experiment with later today or tomorrow.

The blueberry filling is very yummy. I decorated the top of the pie with strawberry slices and blackberries. It is a pretty pie. Looking forward to having it for dessert tonight. Will see if my hubby tries it too.

Thank you for the recipe!

Very cool, jacsam!! I'm sending out some info tonight about soaking nuts, and how it affects this recipe and similar recipes. Makes a big difference with pies! :)
