• Sauce:
• 1/2 cup packed dates1/2 heaping teaspoon cinnamon1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon lemon juice1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract1/3-1/2 cup water (start with less water add until becomes a syrupy sauce)
• 1/2 cup packed dates
• 1/2 heaping teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/3-1/2 cup water (start with less water add until becomes a syrupy sauce)

Directions

• 1. To make pie crust, pulse the walnuts and dates in food processor until it becomes a coarse meal. Be careful not to over process, it should not be mushy, it should have coarse texture. (Set asides 1/3 cup to use as garnish). 2. Press dough gently into pie pans and set aside to chill in the freezer for about 30 minutes. 3. Slice the apples into fine slices, if you have a mandolin that would work great for this. Place the slices into a medium size bowl and set aside. 4. Blend 1/4 cup water with rest of the ingredients for the sauce in a blender, as it blends slowly add more water until the consistency is liquified enough that it is a syrupy sauce consistency. (roughly 1/2 cup water total) 5. Pour the sauce over the apples, mixing it in well. Allow to sit for at least 20 minutes to let the flavors enhance, and the apples will soften. 6. Pull the pie crusts out of the freezer, layer the apples in the pie tart pans evenly creating a spiral of apples. Garnish with the rest of the crumble. Enjoy immediately with a cold glass of coconut or nut mylk!
