Ingredients
  

Crust:
  • 1 ½ cups almonds or walnuts
  • 1 cup Medjool dates pitted
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
Filling:
  • 2 ripe avocados medium to large
  • ½ cup fresh lime juice key limes if available
  • Zest of 2 limes
  • ½ cup maple syrup or agave syrup
  • ½ cup coconut cream thick part only
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Make the crust – Add almonds, dates, sea salt, and coconut oil to a food processor. Blend until the mixture sticks together when pressed.
  2. Press the mixture firmly into the base of a pie dish to form the crust. Place it in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
  3. Blend the filling – In a clean blender, combine avocados, lime juice, lime zest, maple syrup, coconut cream, and vanilla. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Assemble the pie – Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
  5. Chill – Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or overnight for the best texture and flavor.
  6. Slice, garnish with coconut whipped cream and extra lime zest if you like, and serve chilled.

Notes

  • Make sure your avocados are fully ripe for the smoothest filling.
  • Fresh lime juice is key — bottled juice won’t give the same bright flavor.
  • If your coconut cream is too firm, stir it before adding to the blender.
