How to Prepare Lemon Blackberry Pie [Vegan]

  1. For the crust, combine all ingredients in the food processor until they are finely chopped and starting to hold together when squeezed (if it doesn't you may need a few more dates). Press the mixture into an 8-inch pie pan or spring form pan greased with coconut oil.
  2. For the filling, combine all ingredients but the coconut butter and blackberries in a high speed blender and blend until smooth. Add the coconut butter slowly with the motor running until incorporated. Stir in the blackberries. Pour filling into the crust. Place in the freezer to firm up, about 2 hours.
  3. Meanwhile, for the cream topping, combine all ingredients but the coconut butter in a food processor and process until smooth. Add the coconut butter slowly with the motor running until incorporated (so it doesn't separate),and once thickened, pour into a bowl. If for some reason it separates, just continue to blend until it warms up, then pour into a bowl and place in the freezer until it is thick like whipped cream (whisking every so often), about 45 minutes. Once the cream is ready, spread over the top of the pie, slice, and serve.
