If you don't like the taste of bananas, you can use only apples or an apple-pear mixture to make a kind of apple-pear sauce.Finally, the frosting idea is to give a cooked appearance. But it's also to "cover up" the natural browning (oxidation) of apples, which is not very appetizing. But this tangy and spicy frosting sure is and it's delicious too. You'll know what I'm talking about when you read the list of ingredients.
4teaspoonscoconut sugarpreferably reduced to powder in a mill (Note)
½tablespoonlemon juice
½tablespoonground cinnamon
Instructions
To make the crust, place almonds, walnuts in a food processor fitted with the "S" blade and process until the mixture looks like coarse breadcrumbs. Add the raisins and place them evenly over the mixture, then add the vanilla. Process until the mixture simply sticks together. Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch (23 cm) deep-hinge mold, spread it out and squeeze it with your fingers or a spatula (if it's too sticky).
To make the garnish, put in the food processor fitted with the blade in "S", apples, banana, dates, and cinnamon.
To make the icing, whisk together the liquid coconut oil, coconut powder sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon to form a smooth paste. With a brush, coat the top of the apples.
Placed in an airtight container in the refrigerator, this No-Bake Apple pie will keep for a week.
Notes
If the coconut sugar is not reduced to powder, it could leave lumps, but it does not matter if this step is omitted.
Variant
For the option of filling the pie with the whole apple slices, use 6 apples and double the amount of icing indicated above to coat some apples in the middle as well.
