With chewy, uncooked dough, raw pie is, at first sight, no one's dream dessert. But if you radically rethink how it's made (no flour, no eggs, no butter), as raw-food guru
Ani Phyo did in her
Raw Food Desserts, it can be delicious. So says photographer
Christaface, who submitted the image of her very own apple pie, above, and Phyo's
recipe on her Flickr page (where the bonus is a recipe for raw ice cream).
So what's in that crust? Dates, ground almonds, sea salt. And the filling? Apples, cinnamon, raisins, date purée and an orange. The secret to giving it a softer, less than crunchy texture is to let it sit overnight.
