My mom is a real health nut- the kind that I aspire to be some day! She is always whipping up some delicious vegan, raw food recipe. I am always marveling at how good it tastes and while still being pretty darn healthy! When I received permission to share a raw vegan pie dessert recipe with you from the new cookbook- SWEETLY RAW DESSERTS [Quarry Books, December 2014] by Heather Pace– I was super excited. The cook book (available at Amazon, affiliate link below) shares everything you need to know about making the most delicious and nutritious raw food desserts and I was provided with permission to reprint the Lemon-Ginger Blackberry Pie Recipe for you here!

  • ½ cup (40 g) shredded coconut
  • ²⁄3 cup (86 g) packed dried apricots, chopped
  • ¼ cup (45 g) dates

  • 3/4 cup (175 ml) lemon juice
  • 1¹⁄3 cups (182 g) cashews
  • ¹⁄3 cup + 2 tablespoons (145 g) agave or coconut nectar
  • 1½ tablespoons (9 g) minced ginger (on a microplane)

Blackberry Raw Vegan Pie

To Make Blackberry Pie Crust

Grind the almonds and coconut into flour in a food processor.

Add the apricots and dates and process until they are completely broken down. This may take a little while if the apricots are firm.

Add the water and pulse to combine.

Press the crust into a 9-inch (23 cm) pie plate. Set aside.

To Make Blackberry Pie Filling

Blend the lemon juice, cashews, nectar, and ginger in a high-speed blender until smooth.

Add the zest and coconut oil. Blend again to incorporate.

Transfer the mixture to a bowl and fold in the blackberries. If using frozen berries, fold them in quickly so they don’t clump together and start firming up the filling before you have a chance to spread it.

Do not over mix if you want a colorful swirl in the filling.

Evenly spread the filling into the crust.

Chill in the freezer for 6 hours and then in the fridge for at least 8 hours.

Slice and serve your raw vegan dessert blackberry pie.   Enjoy!
