Ingredients

  • FOR THE CRUST:
  • 3 cups Oats (use Certified Gluten-free If Necessary)
  • 1/4 cups Date Syrup (sub Maple Or Agave If You Like)
  • 1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil
  • 1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
  • FOR THE FILLING:
  • 2 cups Pitted Dates, Soaked In Water For At Least 4 Hours
  • 1 teaspoon Coconut Oil
  • 3 whole Medium Apples (or More If The Apples Are Small), Cored And Thinly Sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 1 Tablespoon Natural Sweetener Of Choice (optional)

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F (160 C).
  • Put the oats, date syrup, coconut oil and cinnamon in a food processor and blend until the ingredients are thoroughly combined and start to stick together. If the crumbles do not stick together enough, add more syrup or oil.
  • Pour the mixture into a pan (I used an 11 inch/28 cm spring form pan) lined with parchment paper. Press it evenly into the pan with the back of a spoon.
  • Blend the soaked and drained dates with the coconut oil in a food processor until smooth. Add a little bit more coconut oil if you are having trouble with the blending. Pour the sauce over the crust and spread evenly.
  • Mix the apples, cinnamon and sweetener in a bowl and toss to combine.
  • Top the pie with sliced apples. Bake for 20-30 minutes (the baking time depends on the apples; you don't want them to get too mushy). Remove from oven. Let it cool, then slice and enjoy!
