Trail Mix Pie with Coconut Oil Crust

Trail Mix Pie with Coconut Oil Crust

Author’s Note – This started out as an ordinary pie, but then I decided to include plums. Then instead of using cornstarch or flour to thicken, I chose my prepared oatmeal mixture instead, which includes trail mix.

Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons Virgin Coconut Oil, melted
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 large organic banana, peeled and mashed
  • 1 cup unsweetened pineapple chunks
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 2 organic kiwis, peeled and halved
  • 2 large organic mangoes, peeled and cubed
  • 10–12 ice cubes, optional

Directions:

In small bowl, combine Virgin Coconut Oil, coconut flour, honey, and mashed banana. Mix well, incorporating oil thoroughly. Pour into blender and add all other ingredients except ice cubes. Puree on high until well blended, and then blend for another 1 minute. If mixture is too thick for your taste, you may add some water or ice. Blend on high until ice is completely crushed.

This makes a nice afternoon snack on a hot day or a good, morning drink at breakfast time.
