Ingredients

Crust

·      3/4  cup raw almonds or macadamia nuts

·      ½ cup raw pecans

Pudding Filling

·      2 ripe avocados

·      2 ½ tsp vanilla extract

·      ¼ cup raw cacao powder

·      ½ cup raw honey (more or less to taste)

·      1 tablespoon organic coconut oil

Directions

Crust

Blend crust ingredients in a food processor until they form into a sticky ball. Don’t over process. Using wet hand, press this mixture into the base of a pie pan (10", give or take). Set aside. Clean out food processor.

Pudding Filling

Seed and scoop out avocado into the food processor. Add cacao powder, honey, vanilla, coconut oil. Blend until smooth.

Spoon avocado mixture onto the crust and spread it evenly. Put into the freezer for 30 minutes before serving.  Store in the fridge.

If desired, top with fresh raspberries if not adding banana to crust or banana slices. 

Enjoy!
