Ingredients:

Crust

1 Cup Ground Uncontaminated Oats (OR Almond Flour)

2 Tbsp Sunwarrior Protein Powder

2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Coconut Oil

25-30 Drops Vanilla Creme Stevia OR Sweetener of Your Choice (2 Tbsp Maple Syrup works great here too!)

Pinch Pink Himalayan Crystal Salt

Pecan Pie Filling

1 Cup Medjool Dates (soaked for at least 2 hours, I soak mine overnight)

1 Cup Pecans

1 Tbsp Maca Root Powder (optional)

1 Ripe Banana

2 Tsp Natural Vanilla Extract

1 Tbsp Cinnamon

1/8 Tsp Nutmeg

Pecans to Top (optional)

2. Pat crust into an 8 inch spring form pan (or 2 4 inch spring form mini pans) evenly

3. In a food processor, blend all ingredients for pie filling until thoroughly combined, scraping down the sides if necessary and pour batter over the crust. Level off with a spatula or spoon to even it out

4. Top with pecans if you wish and freeze for at least 3 hours (I freeze mine overnight)

5. Remove from freezer and pan and serve with Zain’s Vanilla Ice Cream
