8This pie is originally made of apples, but here is the strawberry season, so I've tried it with strawberries and it works.
Ingredients:
For the base
1/2 cup of almond (soaked for a night)
1/2 cup of hemp seed
1 cup of
dates
Cinnamon, salt
For the filling
2 apples cut into small pieces
2 grated apples
½ cup of
dehydrated strawberries
1 cup of strawberries cut into little pieces
2-3 dates cut into little pieces
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp of agave nektar
For the cream
1 cup of cashew
4 tsp lemon juice
1 little spoon of vanilia
extract
1 tsp agave nektar
Preparation:
Mix the ingredients for the base in the food processor, then sweeten and flavour and knead a dough of the ingredients. Put it in a cake shape and dehydrate for 3-4 hours.
Mix the ingredients
for the filling and flavour to get a not too moist but "lumpy" dollop. It's also possible to make it without sweetener but then more dates are needed. I used dehydrated strawberries because of their intensive taste, but of course, it's also possible to use fresh ones. THe fruit-mass needs to be filtered.
Use a blender to mix the ingredients for the cream.
Finishing the cake:
Put the filling on the base and then top it with the cream. Don't cover the whole suface, so that the filling can be seen. Decorate with fresh strawberries.

1. Great recipe - thanks. Some
Great recipe - thanks.
Some points:
1 - I couldn't get strawberries so used blackberries.
2 - I have no dehydrator, but the weather in the UK this weekend was great, so I left the base in the sun!
3 - The cashew cream needed more liquid to go creamy. I added some coconut milk.
4 - I used unhulled hemp seeds. MY advice would be to use hulled, or grind the unhulled in a coffee grinder to get a better consistency.
2. MMMM! I made your pie for

I love the recipe, just printed it out and going to make it later. I love your idea for the crust and cream. Wonderful, thank you sooo much! :-)
4. "the fruit-mass needs to be
"the fruit-mass needs to be filtered" means:
The fruit filling produces some liquid, and it must be pored off, not to soak the pie base.
5. This looks divine. I would
This looks divine. I would think strawberries and peaches would also be a nice combination. Just curious . . . what do you mean by "The fruit-mass needs to be filtered."?
