Healthy Berry Pie Recipe
Step 1: Bring apple juice and agar to a gentle boil in an uncovered pot.
Step 2: As soon as the juice comes to a boil, turn heat to medium and cook for 3 minutes to dissolve the agar. Meanwhile, whisk the arrowroot flour or kudzu powder into the honey in a medium-sized bowl.
Step 3: When agar is fully dissolved, pour the honey and arrowroot/kudzu mixture into the pot. Whisk until thick, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Add blueberries and mix well.
Step 4: Line a 10″ pie plate with crushed pecans. Pack down nuts with a spoon as much as possible before adding pie filling. The nuts will form the bottom of the pie but won’t stick together like a traditional pie crust. Pour blueberry mixture into pie plate and top with fresh raspberries for garnish. Refrigerate for 2 hours until set.
