Cherry Pie

This Cherry Pie is full of flavor and so vibrant thanks to the deep red cherries that make this pie so special. Made without gluten, refined sugar, dairy, bad oils, or any other common unhealthy pie ingredients, this recipe is one you can indulge in happily.

Cherries contain phytochemical compounds and agents that are amazing for removing radiation and repairing myelin nerve damage. Women receive particular benefit from cherries’ cleansing properties: cherries remove toxins from the uterus and the rest of the reproductive system and help to reduce fibroids and ovarian cysts.

Cherry Pie

Ingredients:

Crust:

• 1/4 cup ground flaxseeds
• 1/2 cup applesauce
• 2/3 cup coconut sugar
• 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
• 2 cup gluten free oat flour 
• 2/3 cup brown rice flour
• 1/4 cup tapioca flour

Filling:

• 7 cups fresh or frozen pitted cherries
• 1/3 cup + 2 tbsp maple syrup
• 1/3 cup + 1 tbsp arrowroot starch or tapioca flour
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract

To serve:

• 1/3 cup coconut whipped cream (optional)

Directions:

To make the crust, combine the ground flaxseeds, applesauce, coconut sugar, and coconut oil in a bowl. Whisk until uniform. 

In another bowl, whisk together the oat flour, brown rice flour and tapioca flour.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until you get a uniform soft dough. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350F/180C.

Roll the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper, then transfer to a 9-inch pie dish. Using your hands, press the dough evenly into the bottom and sides of the dish. You can use a glass to flatten the bottom. Prick the dough a few times with a fork. Refrigerate until needed.

To make the filling, combine the cherries, maple syrup, arrowroot and vanilla in a large saucepan. Bring the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring often, until you get a very thick mixture.

Transfer filling to prepared crust and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the crust is browned. Cool pie completely before serving, then serve with a dollop of whipped cream (if using).

Serves 6-8
