How to Prepare Naturally Delicious Key Lime Pie [Vegan, Raw, Gluten-Free]

Put the coconut flakes and drained dates into a food processor and process until compact.
Press into the bottom of an 8-inch pie pan or a spring-form pan.
Clean out the food processor (I just wiped it out with a paper towel) and put in the avocado, coconut meat, agave and lime juice.
Process until completely smooth.
Pour over crust and chill in the fridge or freezer. I like to freeze it because it is easier to cut into pieces and put onto plates (out of the fridge, the pie is quite soft). The frozen pieces soften up in a few minutes and are ready to serve.
Store in the fridge or freezer.
