Paleo Grasshopper Pie in a Jar

Prep Time30 minutes
Total Time30 minutes
Servings: 6 servings
Calories: 235kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 small Haas avocado skin and seed removed
  • 1 can light coconut milk
  • 2 scoops vanilla grass fed casein protein
  • 1/2 cup mint leaves packed
  • 2 tbsp honey

Crust

  • 1/3 cup pecans
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 2 tbsp dutch cocoa
  • 1/8 tsp sea salt

Coconut Milk Whip

  • 6 tbsp chilled coconut milk solids only
  • 1 tbsp honey

Instructions

  • Using a NutriBullet or food processor, mill together the pecans, dutch cocoa, coconut flakes and salt until it becomes a fine flour that clumps easily when pinched between your fingers.  Add to bottom of 6 serving glasses.
  • Blend avocado, coconut milk and mint until smooth.  Add casein protein powder and again blend until smooth.  Add honey last and adjust to taste.  If desired, add a few drops of natural green food color and additional peppermint extract to taste.  Layer on top of crust in the serving glasses.
  • Whisk coconut milk solids and honey until smooth.  Spoon into a piping bag and pipe onto each pie before serving.  Add additional mint leaves and chocolate shavings if desired.

Notes

  • If you are unable to find grass fed vanilla casein, you can use plain casein and add extra honey OR use vanilla whey and use an extra 1/2 scoop to closer match the consistency shown here.
  • If you want to skip the protein powder all together, use full fat coconut milk and an extra half of an avocado instead.
  • Since the pie contains avocado, it's prettiest when served the day it's made but tastes just as delicious for 4-5 days after being made and stored in the refrigerator.
