For the crust:
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ½ cup arrowroot starch
- 1 tsp cinnamon ground
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar
- ¼ tsp unrefined salt
- 1/3 cup cold ghee or coconut oil
- 1 egg whisked
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 egg yolk with a little water whisked (for egg wash)
For the cashew cream
- 2 cups soaked cashews see notes
- 1 cup filtered water
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch unrefined salt
For the filling:
- 6-7 medium peachs sliced
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar or more depending on desired sweeteness
- 2 tsp arrowroot starch
- Drizzle olive oil
- Sprinkle with coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp fresh mint chopped (optional)
For the crust:
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add all the ingredients for the crust (minus the second egg for the wash) to the food processor. If you don’t have a food processor, mix together in a bowl with a pastry blender. Pulse or blend until well combined.
Press the dough together and semi flatten on the lined baking sheet.
Place a second piece of parchment paper over the dough and use a rolling pin to flatten to ¼” thick. Set aside.
To assemble:
Pour desired amount of cashew cream in the centre of the flattened crust. Use a spatula to spread the cream about 1 ½” from the edge.
Arrange the peaches in a single layer on top of the cashew cream.
Fold the edges over the peaches and brush the crust with the egg wash.
Drizzle with avocado or coconut oil and sprinkle a little coconut sugar on the crust.
Bake at 350F for 30-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
Soak the cashews overnight in a bowl with filtered water. Make sure there’s 2 inches of water past the cashews. You can do a speedy version by soaking them in water hot off the kettle for 4 hours.
