Paleo Banana Cream Pie

I’m always looking for simple new health(ish) recipes, especially for desserts. I have a sweet tooth and would much rather have it over the dinner any day. Here’s a simple, fast recipe for a Paleo Banana Cream Pie that I will be putting to the test this week. I wanted to share it so that you could, too. All you really need (besides the ingredients) are a food processor, pie tin, and room in your freezer! No baking time and your recipe is all set up in about 15 minutes to pop in the freezer! What could be easier? So here is the breakdown of your ingredients:

Pie Crust:

-2 cups of raw cashews that you soaked overnight

-2 cups of unsweetened shredded coconut

-1/2 cup of dates

-1 teaspoon of cinnamon

Pie Filling:

-1 ½ cups of raw cashews, soaked overnight

-2 medium to large bananas + one extra for slices placed on top of pie

-1/4 cup of honey

-1/3 cup of coconut oil

-1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice

-1 teaspoon vanilla

-a dash of salt

Place all of the ingredients for your pie crust into the food processor and blend until they clump and start to stick together. Place into your pie tin and press it evenly around. Put all of your pie filling ingredients into the food processor (except the extra banana for slicing) and blend until smooth. Pour and smooth it out evenly in the crust. Place banana slice all around the top and pop it into your freezer to harden (at least a couple hours). Take it out, thaw a couple minutes if necessary, and enjoy!
