Gluten-Free Vegan Raw Apple Pie Tart

This quick and simple Gluten-Free Vegan Raw Apple Pie Tart is a healthy apple pie make-over and because you don’t have to bake it, it’s ready under 15 minutes!

There’s no need to give up your love for traditional pies and tarts just because they have a flour, egg and butter crust and a filling that is usually sweetened with white sugar or high fructose corn syrup – because I’ve got you covered!

In addition to this Gluten-Free Vegan Raw Apple Pie Tart, I also did a cherry pie makeover with this Clean Eating Vegan Cherry Tart and a pecan pie makeover with this Gluten-Free Vegan Pecan Pie Bars recipe, both of which are no-bake, raw desserts.

In this recipe, the apple filling made with finely diced red apples and medjool dates and the raw crust is made with walnuts and naturally sweetened with medjool dates.  You can make it even more special by topping it with either this Homemade Whipped Coconut Cream Topping recipe or my Pumpkin Spice Mousse recipe.

So if you enjoy the taste of fresh apple pie, now you can enjoy the sweet apple flavor without ingredients like these:
