Healthy pie, can it really be true? Yes! We had a potluck brunch at our house today with our unschooling friends and this is one of the things I made. If your not familiar with the Paleo diet, here is how Wikipedia defines it, "Paleolithic diet consists mainly of fish, grass-fed pasture raised meats, vegetables, fruit, roots, and nuts, and excludes grains, legumes, dairy products, salt, refined sugar, and processed oils."
Adapted from HMN's cookbook, Many Paths, One Journey to Health.
Ingredients2 c. dates
1 c. nuts (I used almonds but I have used pecans before)
5 sm. organic apples, peeled, cored, and diced
1 c. frozen organic blueberries
2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 c. maple syrup (you could also use honey)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Process dates and nuts in a food processor until they form a smooth oily dough. Press firmly into a pie plate. Mix apples, blueberries, cinnamon, and maple syrup in a bowl then pour into crust. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
