Method

For the Crust

1. Put all the ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
2. Select speed 1, turn the machine on and quickly increase to high speed.
3. Use the tamper effectively to press the ingredients into the blade.
4. Finish blending when it forms a sticky, bread crumb consistency.
5. Scoop the crust mixture into a pie plate, ours was 12” with a removable base.
6. With a spoon, gently press the mixture evenly around the pan. It will only come up the sides a little bit. Make sure that it is spread out evenly and there are no holes in the crust.
7. Chill for 30-60 minutes. Spread diced kiwi fruit or fruit of choice along the crust before pouring in the filling.

For the Filling

3. Use the tamper effectively to push the ingredients  into the blade.
4. Finish blending when it forms a nice smooth but thick consistency, the tamper will help any ingredients that stick to the side.
