If you are looking for a healthier pie crust alternative, this is it! It uses a scoby puree so you get the extra probiotic benefits in the crust while also using honey as the sweetener. Honey is full of FOS, an important prebiotic that helps stimulate the growth of multiple probiotics! It’s very easy to make and you can fill it with any pie filling that you want! This recipe came to us from Kathryn in the Gut Health Guru’s Facebook Group!
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 cup scoby puree
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 3-5 tablespoons of honey
Method:
- To make the scoby puree you take 2 scobies chopped into small pieces and 1-2 tablespoons of kombucha and blend it into a blender until it’s a paste consistency. (If you have extra you can put it in an airtight container and keep it in the refrigerator until you want to use it next.)
- Mix the coconut oil, scoby puree, shredded coconut, vanilla, and honey into a food processor until its not longer chunky and all of the oil is mixed through
- Taste to check the sweetness and add more honey as needed
- Press into a prepared pie tin and fill with your favorite chilled pie filling!
