Raw Key Lime Pies

Raw Key Lime Pies
Eat, drink, and be merry this December with these yummy raw key lime pies by our lovely contributing chef  Niki  ( @rebelrecipes )! This recipe requires no baking and is completely healthy and clean, making Christmas over-indulgence even more acceptable! This ingenious recipe banishes all the empty calories and bad fats present in traditional key lime pies, yet manages to keep all the delicious, creamy goodness that makes the famous key lime pie so special. The recipe uses only 8 ingredients, including our yummy coconut butter and coconut syrup, so what are you waiting for- let’s get mixing!
 
What you’ll need:

For the base:
-  1 tablespoon chia seeds
-  1 cup medjool dates
-  1 cup almonds
-  A pinch of sea salt

For the topping:
-  Juice of 1 lime
-  2 tablespoons Coconut Syrup
-  ½ cup Coconut Butter
-  A pinch of sea salt
-  ½ avocado
-  Grated lime zest to sprinkle on top

Let’s get started!
1. Begin by blitzing your cup of almonds in a food processor until you are left with a fine crumb.
2. Next, throw in your medjool dates and mix until nicely combined.
3. Time to add your chia seeds along with a pinch of salt, then combine together one last time.
4. Grab a muffin tin and line six of the cups with small strips of baking parchment so your tarts can be easily removed.
5. Separate your base mixture between the six cups and press down with a spoon to ensure your base sticks firmly together. Use your spoon to create spaces in the middle of each for your yummy topping!
6. Pop your bases in the freezer to harden for 15 minutes while you whip up the topping!
7. Time to make your creamy topping! Blend all your ingredients together in the food processor for around 3-4 minutes, or until velvety smooth.
8. Divide your creamy topping between your six bases and pop the baking tray back in the freezer for a further 30 minutes.
9. Go on, dig in! What’s left over (if anything!) should be kept cool in the fridge until it’s time for round 2!
