Fire & Light
Light, Fire, and Warmth
Crust
1 cup cashews
½ cup macadamia nuts
¼ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon agave nectar
1 tablespoon coconut butter
9” pie pan
Grind and mix all ingredients in the food processor. Be careful not to overmix; otherwise the mixture will turn into nut butter. Ideally, you want it ultra-fine and crumbly. Press evenly into a 9” pie pan. Put plastic wrap over it and place into the freezer for a minimum of 30 minutes. In the meantime, prepare the filling mixture in the order below.
Filling
Orange Carrot (warmth)
1 ½ medium carrots (approximately ¾ cup)
1 teaspoon orange zest
2 tablespoons agave nectar
¼ cup coconut butter
Grind and mix the ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Pour into the pie crust. Freeze for a minimum of 30 minutes. In the meantime, prepare the next filling.
Red Strawberry (fire)
10 fresh medium strawberries
2 teaspoons vanilla flavor
2 tablespoons agave nectar
¼ cup coconut butter
1.2 ounces dried strawberries
Grind and mix the ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Pour into the pie crust. Freeze for a minimum of 30 minutes. In the meantime, prepare the next filling.
Yellow Pineapple (light)
½ cup fresh pineapple (dice to measure)
2 teaspoons vanilla flavor
2 tablespoons agave nectar
¼ cup coconut butter
7 dried pineapple rings (using scissors, cut into very small pieces and ground in the coffee grinder before putting into the food processor).
Grind and mix the ingredients in a food processor until smooth. You will need to stop and start the machine a few times to scrape the sides. Pour into the pie crust. Freeze for a minimum of 30 minutes. Decorate and serve right away or refrigerate until serving.
Decoration/Garnish
Using thinly sliced pineapple, strawberries, and carrots dipped in orange juice, creatively decorate the top of the pie.
