Instructions
Pie Crust
Grease an 8-inch or 9-inch pie dish with a little coconut oil.
In a food processor or blender, add all four pie crust ingredients. Blend on a high speed for about 5 intervals of 10 seconds, until it forms small crumbs. When you the squeeze the mixture in your hand, it should hold its shape.
Pour the crumb mixture into the greased pie dish. Pat it down with your hands on the bottom and up the sides of the dish in an even layer. Set in the fridge while you prepare the pie filling.
Pie Filling
In a food processor or blender, add the ripe avocados, maple syrup, coconut oil, and peppermint extract. Blend for one to two minutes, until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Fold in the chocolate chips. Then spread the mixture into the prepared pie crust and smooth the top.
Sprinkle the optional toppings of chopped walnuts and chocolate chips, or any other toppings you prefer.
Place the pie in the freezer to set for at least one hour, then slice it up and enjoy!
Notes
Measure the mint extract carefully - too much and your pie could taste overwhelming or artificial.
Allow your pie to chill and solidify fully in the freezer before slicing into it.
Use ripe avocados - not too hard, since unripe avocados won't have the same soft, creamy texture. And not with too many brown spots that it'll ruin the flavor.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
