It isn’t even necessary to feel too guilty about grabbing a piece of pie, because pecans have all kinds of health benefits in them that they come by naturally.

NO BAKE CHOCOLATE PECAN PIE

Serv: 1 Pie

INGREDIENTS

Base:

2 Nuzest Vanilla Almond Protein bars

1 Nuzest Chocolate Peanut Butter bar

1 Serving Nuzest Clean Lean Chocolate Protein

1/3 Cup coconut oil

Filling:

1 and ¼ cups Pitted Dates (220g)

1 Tsp vanilla extract

1 Serving Nuzest Kids Good Stuff vanilla caramel

1 Tsp cinnamon

1/4 Tsp nutmeg

1/2 Cup coconut cream

1 Tbsp pecan nut butter or almond butter

Topping:

Melted dark cacao

INSTRUCTIONS

Firstly, lightly crease your pan with coconut oil, set aside.

In your food processor, blend all the ingredients for the base layer until a sticky dough consistency.

Pour the dough into your pan, press the mixture down firmly creating your pie crust. Pop the pie crust in the freezer whilst making your filling.

For the filling used pre-soaked dates, this ensures they are soft and allows for easy blending. Blend all the ingredients for the filling until a thick paste.

Scrape the filling mixture into your pie pan and cover placing it back into the freezer for 20min before adding your final layer.

Finally add your final layer, by drizzling the chocolate and adding the pecan nuts.

Place the pie back in the freezer for 30-40min to set.

Option to add coconut whip cream when serving.
