raw-berry-chia-pudding-pie

We saw this recipe from Wholefoods raw-berry-chia-pudding-pie. We made a larger pie and adjusted the amounts for the tart pan.

Ingredients: 
  • 1 1/4 cup pitted dates
  • 1 1/4 cup slivered almonds
  • 4 tablespoons flaxseed meal
  • (we added a dash of cinnamon and an inch of vanilla bean to the crust mix)
  • 8 cups mixed fresh berries, divided
  • 1/2 cup chia seeds
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened white grape juice (we used apple juice)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Method: 
To make the crust, in a food processor, combine dates, almonds and flaxseed meal, and process until the mixture is finely ground and begins to clump together, 1 to 2 minutes; stop several times to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Scrape the mixture into a 9-inch pie plate and press down with your fingers or the bottom of a glass to evenly cover the bottom and sides of the plate. Set aside. 

Wipe out the food processor and add half of the berries, chia seeds, apple juice, honey and vanilla. Process until fairly smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in remaining berries. Pour into the pie plate, cover and refrigerate until chilled and chia seeds have thickened the filling, at least 4 hours.
