Hot Apple Pie for the 4th of July

This was my first 4th of July after being diagnosed.. and naturally after starting my healthy eating habits. So.... to celebrate Independence Day, I wanted make an apple pie. Yeah.. in 100 degree heat.

Here's what I came up with:

CRUST:
1 cup almonds
1 cup cashew
1 cup dates
2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon

Blend together and then mash into a pie pan (lightly greased with coconut oil) (Yes.. this is a 'no bake' crust)

PIE:
8 apples, pealed and sliced
A dash of water
LOTS of cinnamon
2 tbsp vanilla

Boil till apples are soft

Pour apples into pie crust. Garnish with pecans. Enjoy. :)
