I am celebrating the grand opening of the brand new Cafe Gratitude in Larchmont Village with their absolutely stunning Key Lime Pie.
It is a serious act of self-restraint to pour all the filling into the crust without first devouring it with a spoon!
Coconut Crust
1 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded dried coconut
1 1/2 cups raw walnuts or macadamia nuts
Dash of sea salt
1/2 cup medjool dates, pitted and chopped
1 tablespoon raw agave nectar
Key Lime Filling:
3/4 cup lime juice
2 medium avocados
1/2 cup + 1 tbs agave
1/4 cup + 2 tbs coconut milk
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp salt
2 tbs lecithin powder
1/2 cup + 1 tbs coconut oil, melted
Blend all ingredients except coconut oil and lecithin until smooth. Add these and blend some more. Pour into coconut crust. Set in the fridge or freezer.
An extra special thanks to jb for taking me out to my very first Cafe Gratitude meal.
Love.
