Saskatoon berry pie

3 tablespoons cashews
3 tablespoons grated coconut
3 medjool dates
Saskatoon berries (as many as you can pick )

For the crust:
Fill cashews, grated coconut and dates in a blender and mix until combined thoroughly.  Press the mixture into a pie dish  (no baking necessary), cover and put  into the fridge.
For the topping:
Fill half of the fruit into a blender and turn the machine on high speed for a few seconds. If you haven’t got enough Saskatoon berries, you may cheat with additional  blueberries, strawberries or some fresh mango.
