Blueberry Banana Pie | Raederle's Raw Recipe

-
This recipe will require soaking time ahead of time.
This is ideally made with a masticating juicer; a juicer that has the "mash" ability, using the "blank" attachment. If you don't have that, that's fine, you can still make this in the food processor.

Blueberry Banana Pie

Crust:
  • 1 cup almonds (raw, soaked, rinsed)
  • 6 dates or ½ cup raisins
  • 2 pinches nutmeg
  • 2 pinches cinnamon
  • 1 pinch sea salt
Filling:
  • 1 cup macadamia nuts (raw, soaked, rinsed)
  • 2 bananas (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 pinches vanilla powder
  • 1 pinch sea salt (optional)
Topping:
  • ½ cup blueberries (washed, organic, fresh)
Directions:
  1. Put macadamia nuts and almond nuts in separate containers and cover them each with drinking water. 
  2. Allow to soak for twelve hours, overnight, or for a minimum of four hours. 
  3. After soaking, rinse thoroughly with drinking water. Drying the nuts before use is optional.
If you have a masticating juicer:
Put dates through the juicer with the soaked almonds two or three times, stirring the mixture periodically during the process.
Add spices and salt and stir in with a spoon.
The reason to optimally use the mash setting on a juicer instead of a food processor is two fold.  Firstly, there is the nutritional benefit of mashing instead of cutting. It preserves more enzyme content and nutrients. Second, there is a texture benefit to mashing instead of cutting. The mashing releases more oils from nuts, creating a creamier texture.
If you do not have a juicer with the mash ability:
Put dried fruit, almonds, spices and salt to your food processor and blend until consistent.
Next:
Spread the crust out on a plate and use your fingers to shape the edges upwards.
Optionally this can be placed in the dehydrator at 105°F or 110°F to firm a little as the filling is made.
Again, if you have a juicer with the mash ability, put the macadamia nuts and bananas together through that first, then stir in spices and salt. If not, put all ingredients together in the food processor and blend until consistent.
Then put the filling into your crust.
Top with blueberries, or the berry of the season.
Thanks for reading.

Vibe Logging: The Value in Tracking Emotions Through Time

-

  For many years I tracked how I spent every minute of my time – and I learned fun facts about myself – over the course of three years of data my average time spent reading fictional novels per day was forty-four minutes. But eventually I stopped logging my time; I’d learned it added roughly twenty minutes to my shower to wash my hair, and that I didn’t feel happy with my relationship when we spent under two hours of quality time together per day. The experiment was a success, but the returns were diminishing. Then, seven years after the original time-logging project began, I had a new inspiration: vibe logging. The premise was that each day had a “vibe” to it – wistful, industrious, melancholy, frustrated, introspective – and that by keeping track of these vibes I’d learn something about how my mood shifted over the course of days, weeks, months, and – maybe, if I was ambitious enough – years. I’ve been “vibe logging” for four years now, and I can say this project has been an asto...

How can you get enough protein on a raw vegan diet? A raw vegan diet does not contain any: Meat Dairy Eggs Fish Beans (unless sprouted raw) Rice (unless soaked and consumed raw) So where does the protein come from? Michelle Battermann Michelle (pictured to the right) is a raw vegan fitness champion. (She mentioned to me personally that she hates the fake tan, but that it is required for body building competitions so that muscle definition stands out when you're under bright lights on the stage.) How does Michelle get such a strong muscular body when she eats a purely raw and vegan diet? Raw Vegan Protein The raw vegan diet provides protein predominantly in its basic form; amino acids.
