p 8 la Torta della Nonna

my vegan diabetic version has a nut pie crust and uses avocado to make the pudding filling, has no eggs, no butter, no milk, no sugar

the classic recipe calls for 5 eggs, 1 cup butter, 1 cup milk,& 2 cups sugar....


for pudding filling :
blend 6 avocados (without skin or pits) , with 3 pinches pure powdered stevia extract ( I prefer NOW brand), and 1 tablespoon cocoa butter, and 3 tablespoons cocoa.

for crust mix 2 cups pistachio, cashew, almond, or hazelnuts,in processor with a pinch of pure powdered stevia extract, and 1 cup unsweetend coconut flakes

form pie shell into pyrex , ceramic, or stoneware, round baking dish
add pudding
to with pine nuts
