How to Make Ani S All American Apple Pie
- Combine the soaked almonds, dates, and lemon juice in a food processor until a smooth paste forms. This will be your pie crust.
- Press the almond paste firmly into a pie dish, creating an even crust. Place in the freezer for at least 15 minutes to chill.
- In a separate bowl, combine the shredded apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Pour the apple mixture over the chilled almond crust.
- Gently press the apple filling into the crust. If you want a more refined presentation you can create decorative shapes and patterns in the filling.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set and the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, garnish with optional toppings like fresh berries, shredded coconut, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
