i am slightly addicted to making new CLEAN recipes now...
{probably because that is all i can eat...for the next 26 days (and seriously counting-but that's a whole different post)}
after making paleo chocolate chip cookies for the fam i decided i needed something sweet too. i came up with this apple pie type thing. it is just what the doctor ordered for my sweet tooth. but i must admit, i do feel like i cheated...even though i don't think i did.
makes 2 servings (maybe 3 or 4 if you stretched it)
ingredients:
- one apple
- 1/4 cup cashews
- 1/4 cup almonds
- 3-5 dates (i bet figs would be good too)
- water (eye ball this amount)
directions:
- preheat oven to 350
- put cashews and almonds in blender until crumbly to form the crust
- line a small ramekin bowl (or some other bowl that can handle the oven) with the crust and gently press down
- place apples on top
- add a little bit of water
- add a few cut up dates on top and even some cinnamon
- i had some left over "crust" so i sprinkled a little on top...it was a bit too much when i actually ate it though (this is why you may have enough crust to make 3 or 4)
- bake for about 20-25 minutes
