Place the pecans, almonds and dates in a high-speed blender and pulse until finely ground. It may be crumbly, but should hold together when pinched with your fingers
Line your tart cases with parchment paper - if you don't have removable bases (which I do)
Place the nutty-date mixture into tart cases and use your fingers and knuckles to mold around the cases.
To make the filling, combine the cashews, pumpkin puree, coconut oil, maple syrup and pumpkin pie spice in a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour the filling over the nutty-date base and spread evenly using a flat spatula.
Place in the freezer for 15 mins
Lift the bars out of the tart cases using the parchment paper edges or push the removable bases upwards (gently!)
Serve immediately topped with pecans.
- Avoid over processing the nutty-date crust otherwise it will be oily and sticky to set in the tart cases
- I use canned pumpkin for this as it works really well to create a creamy consistency
- If you can, use tart cases with removable bases. It makes it super easy to remove them.
- Don't forget to send them in the freezer for the full 15 minutes to help your pies to set
- These can be enjoyed fresh or stored in the freezer for up to a month
