This fall dessert focuses on the flavors of fresh apples rather than baked. Make this pie a few hours before you're planning to serve it as the filling needs some time to soften. Watch our how-to video.

Ingredients
Method
For the crust, bring 1 cup water to a boil.
Place boiling water and dates in a small bowl and let soak for 10 minutes.
Drain and reserve soaking liquid.
Place dates, almonds, walnuts, cinnamon and salt in the bowl of a food processor; blend to form a sticky paste. (There will be larger pieces of nuts.)
If needed, thin with a couple of tablespoons or more of reserved soaking liquid to help the blending process.
Spoon the mixture into 9-inch pie plate; press over the bottom and up the sides to form the crust. Set aside.
For the filling, place orange, raisins, ginger, cinnamon and vanilla in the bowl of a food processor.
Pulse for a few seconds to finely chop the fruit and make some juice.
Place sliced apples in a medium bowl and add orange-raisin mixture.
Toss to coat completely.
Transfer apple-mixture to prepared crust. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Sprinkle with coconut before serving.
