Make the classic Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie better with less added sugar and more whole food sweeteners. Using sweet potatoes is a 'chef' trick, for its sweeter than pumpkin.💛

PUMPKIN SPICED SWEET POTATO PIE
w/ whipped coconut crème
Recipes created by Teri Gentes. Permission required to reprint.

This is one of my favorite pies and it truly delivers on both addictive taste and nutrient density. This is a perfect way to eat! Don’t limit pumpkin spiced foods to the fall for this pie is a wonderful way to enjoy a fabulous dessert while nourishing your body with an abundance of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory spices. Make it any time you crave a creamy and delish dessert.

Dessert
Prep time 15 minutes plus 3-4 hours to chill
Vegan; gluten and soy free
Serves 8

CRUST INGREDIENTS:

1½ cups almond meal or ground oatmeal flakes (gluten-free if needed)
1/3-1/2 cup Medjool dates
1 tsp pumpkin spice, store bought or home-made (use link below for the recipe)
Pinch sea salt
2 tbsp coconut oil, melted

FILLING INGREDIENTS:
2 cups cooked sweet potatoes, pumpkin or butternut squash puree
2/3 -1 cup pureed dates to taste (I use 1 full cup if making this with pumpkin puree)
1-2 tbsp maple syrup, or to taste (adds that fabulous Canadian Maple taste)
¼ cup coconut oil, warmed to melt or sub w/ 1/4 cup coconut mana/butter
1 tsp vanilla – liquid or paste
2 tsp+ pumpkin spice, to taste
Pinch sea salt

TERI’S TIPS:
Black-strap molasses are a mineral rich substitute for the maple syrup. Give it a taste test.
You can make this pie ahead and freeze for up to one month so make two, one for now and another for later.
If preferred the crust can be made with ginger cookies instead of the nuts or oatmeal.

We are enjoying extended summer like days yet clearly fall approaches with the chilly mornings and frost warning evenings.
Here is a great chart to remind you of the power of food on all aspects of our health including our skin.

Eat like you love yourself and value your amazing body. It is miraculous in all it does when given the nutrients and care it needs.

Choices! What a power blessing.
Choose to respond wisely, in every circumstance for it impacts the outcome positively or negatively.

Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy. I choose joy over despair. Not because I have my head in the sand, but because joy is what the earth gives me daily and I must return the gift.

If you are juicing...

Vegetables are loaded with water and electrolytes and most are low in sugar. Some of these vegetables produce a high yield of juice and should be a staple to fresh juicing.
