Nb persons: 12
Yield:
Preparation time:
Total time:
Source:
| For the Crust | |
| 2 1/4 cups | dried shredded organic coconut |
| 1/3 cup | extra virgin coconut oil |
| 2 | dates, pitts removed |
| 1 tbsp | maple syrup |
| 1 tbsp | alcohol free organic vanilla |
| 2 cups | finely diced organic strawberries, to line the crust |
| Method Place all ingredients, except strawberries, in a food processor and combine well until coconut oil is evenly distributed and the mixture is beginning to bind together. To ensure easy removal of pie from pan, you may cut a disc of parchment paper and place in bottom of pie place. Scoop crust mixture into a deep 10″pie plate. With a spoon, gently allocate the mixture up the sides of the pan, guiding it toward the top but not pressing down until the mixture is evenly distributed. Then using the back of the spoon, press mixture down and smooth out the surfaces ensuring no holes in the crust. Chill for 30-60 mins. Spread diced strawberries on the bottom of the crust just before pouring the filling in. For the filling | |
| 2 cups | young coconut meat, (approx 2 coconuts opened, scooped and diced) |
| 1/2 cup | diced, peeled mini zucchini |
| 1/2 cup | cashews, soaked 30 mins & drained |
| 1/3 cup virgin coconut oil-the best oil you can afford! | |
| 1 1/4 cups | fresh young coconut water, (from 1-2 coconuts depending on size) |
| 1 1/2 tbsp | alcohol free organic vanilla |
| 2 tbsp | maple syrup or to taste |
| 6 | strawberries sliced, for decorating the top |
| 6 | raspberries, for decorating the top |
| fresh mint sprigs, for decorating the top | |
Method
Place all ingredients (except berries and mint) in a blender and process until smooth, repeatedly scraping sides down to encourage complete mixing, reaching a smooth, silky, creamy mixture that is still very thick. Refrain from adding more moisture and persevere if it is very thick in order to maintain a stiffness that will make the final result hold together well. If you have a Vitamix use the poker that inserts in the lid. A blender seemed to reach a much smoother mass than a food processor but experiment if you may. Pour into strawberry lined chilled crust. Chill 4 hours or over night. Shortly before serving, decorate the firm pie surface carefully (try not to relocate your slices after setting them down as it may mark the surface) with the sliced strawberries, raspberries and mint as per image (directions below) or in your own creative manner. Enjoy:)
