Fruit & Nut Pie(Raw)

L
Looking for a quick, delicious and easy dessert. But at the same time without any refined sugars or flour.
Then this dessert is perfect for you. Made with healthy Almonds & iron rich dates and topped with berries, pineapple and kiwi. This not only tastes amazing but looks very pleasing too. Whip some Organic raw heavy cream and xylitol and pipe this over to create an healthy fruit pie and enjoy.


However if you are looking for diabetic friendly dessert, this is not for you. Dates are very high in sugar (fructose). Even though it is a natural form of sugar, this will definetly spike your blood sugar count. So please look for recipes using Xylitol or Stevia if you are on a diabetic diet. You can find lot of dessert ideas in this site itself using Xylitol, so be sure to check it out.
