The easiest most effortless pie you will ever make! You know I’m serious right? Literally all you need are your favorite apples and a few more ingredients and people will think you baked for hours.

I am the Queen of making recipes out of what I have! I wanted a apples in pie form, but I didn’t want the crust. I wanted an apple pie but I didn’t want to pour an entire bag of sugar in a pot to eat it. Don’t even act brand new! Ya’ll know how the apple pies were baked back in the day… #SugarMinistry! You would eat that slice.. and another one.. topped with ice cream…. and then feel like you need to be wheelbarrowed out of Grandma’s House! LOL!!!

Ingredients

  • •Granola (Kind Granola, Dark Chocolate ))
  • •2 handfuls Craisins ((handful, or half a cup))
  • •AgavePie Pan/Dish
  • •Non stick Spray

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice your cleaned apples, on the thinner side.

  2. 2

    Place them at bottom of your dish.

  3. 3

    Slice your cleaned apples, on the thinner side.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle with Light Cinnamon.

  5. 5

    Next create a thin layer of the granola on top of the apples.

  6. 6

    You should be able to see the apples underneath.

  7. 7

    You are going to sprinkle them around on top of the Granola.

  8. 8

    Now sprinkle the craisins on top of the dates (only like a hand full).

  9. 9

    Lastly, drizzle agave across the top of the dish.

  10. 10

    Literally Drizzle it from one end to the next.

  11. 11

    You already have dates, you don't need extra sweetness 🙂

  12. 12

    Put it in the oven and bake for 30 mins, depending on your stove.

  13. 13

    It will get a little darker, and the apples will be perfectly soft.

  14. 14

    **Extra – if you just have to have ice cream… use coconut ice, and a super small scoop saints*.
