Difficulty/Easy
Selene says, “the crust’s ingredients combine for a caramel-y and candied pecan flavour. Cinnamon and nutmeg blend perfectly with the juices of the peaches, creating a naturally sweet spiced syrup.” Now if that doesn’t sound terrific ….Check out the ice cream section of the recipe site for ideas on raw vegan ice cream to go along with your pie.
