  • 2 apples cubed
  • 4 bananas
  • 1 cup ]rye flour
  • 1 egg or flax meal - 3 Tbsps ground flax seeds mixed with 3 Tbsps water

  • cup granola
  • 4 tbsps raw pumpkin seeds
  • 1 ½ tbsp corn starch
  • 2 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp rum extract
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • cup raisins
  • stevia extract optional – you can skip this, the recipe is just as good without any sweetener, the bananas have enough sweetness

Instructions
 

  • For the dough:
  • In a large bowl add rye flour, granola, 1 tbsp cinnamon, 1 tsp rum extract, stevia extract (optional), pumpkin seeds, grapeseed oil and 1 egg or flax meal*. Using your hands start mixing the dough.
  • The right consistency is when it is easy to handle and not too sticky. If it is too sticky add more flour; also if it’s too dry, add some oil.
  • Cover a cake form with some parchment paper the add the dough and start pressing with your hands. This pie has a more rustic feel so don’t worry it doesn’t have to be perfect.
  • For the filling:
  • Add the sliced bananas, corn starch and vanilla extract in the blender. Blend until smooth.
  • Pour the banana cream in the cake form. Add cubed apples. Spread them evenly in the pie. Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake at 375ºF (190ºC) for about 45 minutes.

Notes

*How to make flaxmeal: Grind the flax seeds in a blender. Use two tablespoons flaxmeal plus 1/8 teaspoon baking powder plus 3 tablespoons water for each egg.
