raw blueberry pie

this is a treat the whole family can enjoy, and it's filled with good stuff that will be good for your baby! for younger babies maybe just give them the filling rather than the pie crust.

in food processor blend/grind:
1 cup oat groats
1 cup almonds,
1 cup of dried apricots soaked for 2 hrs (add to blend a little bit of soak water if needed)

Press into cake tin/baking dish lined with cling wrap (so you can lift out easy) and dehydrate for 4 hrs (or you could just bake it in the oven probably for about 1/2 hr on 180deg C lining the tray with baking paper not cling wrap)

then blend the following
and pour into base:
2cups of fresh blueberries,
2 cups of cashews,
2 tablespoons of agave nectar (the sweetener is optional and you could use blended dates instead)

i find fresh blueberries blend up into a more gelatinous consistency than frozen blueberries but i suppose you could use frozen blueberries, maybe add some chia seeds to make it more gelatinous if needed
.

freeze or refrigerate. can be frozen for up to 2 weeks.
