Ingredients
Crust
- 1 cup (250 g) raw almonds
- 1/2 (125 g) cup raw cashews

- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground cloves
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Filling
- 5 – 6 apples, peeled and chopped into cubes or slices (I used Granny Smith but any baking apple would work fine)
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) raw honey (you can alter to your liking)
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp allspice
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg, ground
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla

- 1/2 cup (125 g) toasted pecans
Directions
Crust
- Put all the nuts in a food processor and process into crumbs.
- Add the dates and process until incorporated with the nut mix.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and process until mixture holds together.
- Press into a 9” pie pan and refrigerate while making filling.
Filling
- Preheat over at 350 F/177 C.
- Put all ingredients (except for pecans) in a mixing bowl and mix so that apples are evenly covered.
- Pour apple mixture into crust, then cover with toasted pecans.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, until apples are soft.
