• seeds of 1/2 vanilla pod
• 1/2 C raw honey
• 1 T coconut oil

5. Puncture some holes in the base using a fork.

The Filling

Ingredients:

• 5 ripe avocados
• 3/4 C lemon zest
• 2 T lemon juice
• 3/4 C raw honey
• 1 C coconut oil melted
• seeds of 1 vanilla pod, or vanilla extract
• 1/2 t Himalayan rock salt

Method:

1. Blend all ingredients together until smooth.
2. Pour into pie crust.
3. Refrigerate overnight.

Note

1. The recipe uses avocado as the bulk for the filling, so the trick here is to make sure you have enough lemon flavouring in it to mask the avo taste. So if in doubt add in both juice and zest of an extra lemon.
