Nutritious Vegan Apple Pie
crust:
1/2 cup almonds
1/2 cup pecans
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
3/4 cup oats
5 tablespoons apple juice
1/2 cup dried cranberries
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
filling:
3-4 apples with skin still on
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Put all crust ingredients into a food processor. Process until all ingredients are well incorporated. Crust will be chunky. Grease a 9 inch pie pan lightly with olive oil. Press crust into pan and partly bake for 15 min. Slice apples thinly. Do not peal. Place in a mixing bowl and add vanilla cinnamon and lemon juice. Stir until apples are well covered with cinnamon. Fill pie. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minuets. Be careful not to burn bottom crust. Nuts burn easily. Happy baking!

SO HOW'D IT GO?
this "apple pie" was not that great- it was more of a baked apples on granola bar-type dish. i probably will not be making it again
I give it a B-. The crust is good it taste like granola.
