Scrumptious Apple Pie

I made this delicious Apple Pie last night for a charity bake sale.It tastes a lot like the baked one,with cinnamon and raisins which go perfect together.I made it with some organic Pink Lady apples but you could use any kind.Apple season is coming..yippee

Ingredients:

For the Filling
2 Large Crisp Apples
¼ cup Raisins
¼ cup Coconut Nectar or Raw Honey
1 tablespoon Softened Almond butter
Juice from half a Lemon
2 teaspoon Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
½ teaspoon Nutmeg

For the Crust
1 cup raw Oat Groats
1 cup raw Walnuts
1 cup Dates
1/2 cup Raisins
2 tablespoon Extra Virgin Coconut Oil

Decoration
Some extra raisins and apple slices

Preparation:

Filling:
Slice apples ( the way you like it) and mix with raisins in a large bowl and set aside.
In a small bowl mix together all other filling ingredients. Mix well with a fork.
Pour the mixture evenly over apples and raisins, then toss for a minute or two to ensure even distribution.

Let marinade for about 20 min.

Crust:
Put oat groats,walnuts,dates, raisins and melted coconut oil in a food processor
(I just got a new one(-:) and process until mixture sticks together.
Put mixture in a round baking pan and press into bottom of the pan.Let harden in the fridge.
Once the crust has hardened, pour apple mixture evenly on top.

You can decorate it however you like.I just sprinkled some extra cinnamon and raisins on top and decorated the edges of the pie with some more apple slices.
