Instructions for Crust
  1. Using a food processor, add graham crackers and ground/chop till somewhat fine. Add to the bowl.

  2. Place the rest of the blueberries in a big bowl and add the thickened sauce. Stir gently until well incorporated.
  3. Pour it into the baked pie crust. Smooth the top and place in fridge, covered for at least 4 hour or overnight.

Notes

Can also use Maple Cinnamon Ghee.
Super delicious made with fresh strawberries or peaches (peeled), or a mix of berries. Top with whip cream if you desire but this dessert stands well all on its own!
Serves 8 generously!
A best kept secret is to invest in a small nutmeg grinder. Nothing beats freshly grated nutmeg from the pod. 🙂
