I'm so excited to share my latest crazy (but so good) avocado and chocolate creation. This is a healthy Gluten Free Chocolate Avocado Banana Silk pie. The filling has not added fat or sugar. But you won't even miss it. This ended up being so creamy and rich from the avocado and banana. It had the right amount of sweetness from the ripe bananas and the molasses added just a touch more with some iron.
If you think about it, an avocado is almost perfect. It can be savory or sweet. After all it's really a fruit and not a vegetable. My family had no clue there wasn't any added cream to make this silk pie so smooth and delicious. I didn't feel guilty letting them enjoy. I love thinking about the added nutrition and fiber this pie provides. And no sugar in the filling?! Serious win-win in my book!
I won't tell them it's really healthy either. I think the cookie crust tricked them. An alternate crust could easily be use if you want to make it truly healthy.
I ended having a whole batch of cookie dough left over from another recipe I was supposed to make but ended up getting sick. You cannot waste cookie dough, right? Right.
