Holiday season is all about baking, especially pies. I have always LOVED pecan pies, but you can never find a good pecan pie that’s also vegan AND without refined sugar. So, I decided to make one and MAN it was absolutely amazing.

Ditch the sugar - use a natural sweetener instead... DATE PASTE!!
Usually I use syrup or agave in my desserts (to replace the refined sugar),but I wanted something that would compliment the crust nicely, so I decided to make date paste. Dates are an amazing natural sweetener (probably the healthiest) and are super delicious. The paste is really easy to make and you can store it in the fridge for up to 2 months.

What about the pie crust?
Luckily, Keebler makes a ready made
Graham Pie crust that's also Vegan (but it does have a lot of refined sugar, other processed ingredients). I've just made my nuts & dates pie crust and set it in these super handy
aluminum pie pans.
