FullyRaw Pumpkin Pie!

[@courtneyphillips4454]

I have successfully used mango in place of the persimmon and it comes out an absolutely beautiful texture!

[@myrahudsonkey]

Ok, though it looked great in the video, I was VERY skeptical as to how it would taste. Well, I just made it. It was super easy. I didn't use quite as many dates or nuts for the crust OR the filling. WHOA. This is delicious!! Thanks so much for the recipe! I've made a few of Kristina's recipes and have been blown away by each of them! This is no different. TRY IT!!

[@bdoyle9881]

How many dates did you use? may I ask?? I want to make this too

[@myrahudsonkey]

I used about a cup of nuts and approx 6 large medjool dates for the crust. I added probably 8 dates for the filling and also added 1/4c of unsweetened coconut flakes. It's as solid as traditional pumpkin pie, without being in the freezer. I simply refrigerated it and it was perfect!

[@GeorgiaAndrea]

True. I find 5 dates is already enough to make a sweet venti size drink!

[@alyssafarrens7716]

Hi! I know that you posted this a LONG time ago, but I was wondering if you kept everything else in the recipe the same, and just changed the dates and nuts?

[@bdoyle9881]

I haven't made it yet, Teef Master has, but I would say so..

[@AnnaSneddon]

Oh my goodness, I just made this for the first time... literally just placed it in the freezer 3 minutes ago... I couldn't help but eat so much of it while making it. It is soooooo good!!! Thanks for the recipe Kristina!

[@HealthyGroceryGirl]

Yum!! Great recipe! Thanks for sharing!!

[@buckskinz321]

Omg Kristina you are such an inspiring woman. You always put a smile on my face and I just love watching your videos. I can't thank you enough though. On thanksgiving of last year, I was still eating meat and dairy my entire life. I was active but inside, I felt slugglish all the time and I knew that my diet was affecting me. Then that night on Thanksgiving, I saw one of your videos on being a Fully Raw vegan. When I first saw you, you had such an amazing complexsion and always had a huge smile on your face. I knew in my heart that you had a passion for this lifestyle and I could tell how healthy and happy you were from that day forth. From that moment you inspired me to change my diet and my life. I am currently now a vegan and for almost a full year now! I can run so much farther now and I feel so much more confident and happier than I was before. I can't thank you enough for helping me become aware of this diet and I've never felt so alive in my life. Someday I want to visit the Rawfully Organic company in Texas and purchase fresh fruits and veggies from your Co Op. Thank you Kristina for being an inspiration to me and everyone else!

[@HealthNutNutrition]

My sister and I are making this for Thanksgiving! Cant wait to finally try it out:)

[@keziahseraphim]

Hi Kristina! This morning I checked my persimmon and was so excited to see that it was finally ready, so I made this pumpkin pie. Oh. My. Goodness. It is SO GOOD! And it really does taste just like pumpin pie, but somehow even better!

[@keziahseraphim]

ALSO, I found myself talking like you to my daughter while I was making it, and I fed some of the filling to my 10 month old for breakfast.

[@Mikelpsu11]

How many of those pumpkins do you need for the recipe? She says 2-3 cups but do you get that much from 1? Also did you peel them?

[@dylaustin8]

Mikelpsu11 I found about half a pie pumpkin makes 3 cups, and yes you need to peel it ^.^

[@Mikelpsu11]

Thank You!

[@gwenscott535]

"And it really does taste just like pumpkin pie," well you were making pumpkin pie what did you think it would taste like BEEF Burgeon .

[@soniaho5173]

Hi Kristina! Although you made this video many years ago, I came across this video just a couple weeks ago and I finally made it! This recipe is delicious and so much healthier! Thank you so much for sharing this :-) I love it!

[@wendiland]

I was thinking if pumpkin can be eaten raw since I wanted to make a raw pumpkin pie. So glad I saw this video! Knew I should have gotten dates at farmers market otherwise I'm set for pie tonight. Darn! Thank you for this lovely recipe.

[@alexanderlisa100]

I use raw sweet potatoes also. yummy

[@juels508]

Wendi Phan Wendi!

[@ladycomet72]

Perfect! I was hoping someone would post a raw pumpkin pie video! Thank you for teaching us and can't wait to try it!

[@NRM9380]

You can also use this Pie crust with the coconut cream icing that she used for her jelly donuts to make a coconut cream pie, sooooooo delicious.

[@mickeyb4441]

I love Kristina I do. But I feel like this is the first recipe I've seen her eat that she looks like she genuinely enjoys.

[@fullyrawkristina8586]

For anyone who is worried about the amount of fat in this recipe, simply reduce the amount of nuts. If you use 1.5 cups of pecans (there is barely any fat in dates), and if you cut a portion slice, it comes out to about 14.5 grams of fat per slice. If you ate the whole pie, that would be a different story for a different day and most likely not the healthiest option. When eaten in proportions, it would count as your 10% fat for the day if not less. This is a holiday recipe! Hope that helps! hugs

[@LyndaMarieRoy]

I just made the beautiful raw pie! Family tasted the filling and liked it. Can't wait to serve it after it's chilled. I made four small tart pan pies. Fabulous!!! Thank you Kristina!

[@lovelygirl8315]

if you have the vitamix you can definitely use it to make the crust as well, no need to have both the food processor AND the vitamix!

[@sandrademorgan4821]

I just made this recipe! Even I have not persimmons It taste reaaalllyyyy good! Thank you

[@angelsandfaes]

I can't find any persimmons is there a substitute that I can use instead. Or can I skip it? Thanks Kristina

[@TheCreatingPost]

Made one for each person in our family. Everyone loved them. They were surprised when they found out that I didn't even cook the pumpkin (or buy it canned). Thinking of making this (XXL or as little mini pies) to take for Thanksgiving to our big family gathering.

[@LeianaL0ve]

I love how "raw" and original this video is doesn't seem rehearsed or too perfect 👍🏽

[@teamjoffery]

I looooooove pumpkin pie, and I'm sooooo excited to try this out!!

[@moni4eva1]

that's REAL food porn the way that persimmon exploded when you pushed it down lol :D

[@vanillavegan2341]

Ikr 😞😭

[@GeordiLaForge1974]

moni4eva1 Ja! Ja! Ja!

[@bluerose6160]

Kristina you inspiered me so much with your fully raw recipes and with your way how you make the videos..like a singer ,like a actress ...You are a wonderful girl..Thank you for existing !

[@rshallpac]

All your vids are invaluable with recipes and advice. ...serving this pie & your persimmon nog to my non-vegan family for thanksgiving! They've been primed and can't wait...I've been serving them many of your recipes since I changed to Vegan 4 months ago! The have seen how healthy and yummy it really is! I'm not fully raw yet, still working on food sources etc...and now it's winter, but soo much improvement in my general health! Hair, skin, nails, energy...the best in my life and I'm about to hit 49...thank u!!! O, love the Notebook scene! Missed that the first time I watched this...😉

[@nana67676]

I am planning to get fully raw vegan. Could you please tell me how your body changed when you went vegan? And how did you feel? do you feel you are more energetic and stronger?!!

[@cantrip7]

Kristina, you are a ray of sunshine in my day. Thank you.

[@VictoriasCraftyRoom]

when do you put the vanilla in??

[@veganandorganic4223]

OMG! This rocks Kristina. It was one of the easiest things I have made and it came out above my expectations. Can't wait until my husband gets home and we have dessert tonight! I can't tell you how many recipes I have tried that don't come close to having great taste. Thank you!

[@frikkiebodenstein3039]

Dearest Christina, my husband and I LOVE your videos on KZbin,and you are such a bright brilliant lady! Thank you for all the wonderful raw food recipes you share with the world! Be blessed for success! Freda

[@techlady4276]

You are sooo funny, Kristina. I love your ZEST for life and your PASSION for healthy raw food. Great! Keep up the good work and please keep sharing your wonderful, mouthwatering recipes!

[@keepcalmandloveblue]

That ending

[@ShedATLANTA]

Kristina, I always feel inspired watching your videos. I can never thank you enough for all that you do. You are truly a light in my light. What an incredible festive dessert! I most certainly will make this treat. Thank you beautiful spirit. I wish you all that you desire and beyond.

[@DrGigiKwame]

Hey Kristina! I absolutely love your channel! Can I substitute the pumpkin for sweet potatoes and can the persimmon be substituted?

[@blinksbill1138]

Obviously

[@voicesinthewoods]

Ever think of making a recipe book? I'd buy it in a SECOND! You know, something to have in the kitchen as you prepare stuff. You are FABULOUS!!!

[@ladyofwordzpublishing408]

Sheesh i finally found this vid...AFTER THANKS GIVING..haha...Cool Background music.Hugs

[@devanfronk960]

Made this today and it was FANTASTIC! I absolutely love that eating raw has sent me into many new food adventures. I had never tried persimmon before this and now I have a new fruit on my list of faves. Thank you for the delicious recipe.

[@mileyfansinga]

love this recipe just confused why it says low fat because you seemed to use a great deal of pecans?

[@atkinsgina]

Compared to the traditional pumpkin pie filled with butter and milk this is extremely low fat. Also, walnuts are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E. All fat is NOT bad fat.

[@mileyfansinga]

I know its good haha I like being healthy too. Okay I was just wondering what is considered "low fat". But this is totally a great alternative recipe. Thanks :)

[@lovelyjvjoan]

Two thumbs up, Ms. Kristina!!! we are your fans from the Philippines....MABUHAY!!!

[@laurenandalora9235]

I definitely had multiple foodgasms

[@jamient]

Lol, it's so obvious that you had so much fun making this video, that it just makes me happy.

[@summersky4184]

i need a blender..

[@loriannlofaro9684]

Can't wait to try to make this for Thanksgiving! I've seen some other "raw" pumpkin pie videos and they don't come close to this one. This recipe is using food in its most purest form, no salt or oils added.

[@mamaspooky7806]

Kristina, or anyone else, do you know if you can substitute the persimmons with another fruit? Like maybe mango? I'm asking because in New York City, it is actually very hard to find ripe persimmons! Or if anyone reading this in NYC knows where I can find good, fresh, ripe produce. I'm going to make this pie as a birthday cake for my boyfriend THIS WEEKEND! Help!

[@MaYo00127]

Im not sure what you can substitute for it. But I have bought persimmons at the Fairway Markets, but not the kind that Kristina used, the one that I have seen in Fairways were firm (like a pear) but it still should do the job of adding that extra pumkiny flavor.

[@soilmanted]

MaYo00127 NO! If they are firm they are not ripe yet and will have lots of astringency. Very unpleasant on the tongue. That said, a well-ripened pear is soft, like a ripe avocado.

[@MaYo00127]

After having another persimmon that was firm gave me that unpleasant feeling. So I agree. I'm not sure how the other one managed to be firm and sweet.

[@MaYo00127]

Theodore Zuckerman After having another persimmon that was firm gave me that unpleasant feeling. So I agree. I'm not sure how the other one managed to be firm and sweet.

[@visuallyaya]

Hey Mama Spooky , you can def find persimmons in NY. I don't know about ripe but Trader Joes, Whole Foods,Fairway should have them. Union Square Farmer's market could also carry them. My biggest tip is to go to an Asian supermarket. Chinatown or Koreatown. Persimmons are really big in Asia. Even as a kid, I knew them as Kaki and nothing else (which by the way might be the name written instead of persimmon). Good luck!

[@GrammyGinger]

I'm making this again for Christmas along with a similar apple pie ala banana ice kream. I'm not putting as many dates in the crust though, since it works pretty well with less and tastes more like pie crust. The apple pie will have a walnut crust. I'm making these in 5-inch quiche pans for the cutest individual pies possible. What do you think about that? Thanks for helping me find a way to make Christmas festive this year. All you raw posters have given me some fantastic ideas.

[@fullyrawkristina8586]

This was BY FAR my favorite video to make for you! I got to be silly and even turn into a PUMPKIN! Be sure to watch the BLOOPERS b/c it's my favorite part! Mom even quotes, "Don't tell your grandma it's better than hers!" You want a slice of this pumpkin spice! ;) This low-fat raw vegan recipe is the ultimate holiday pie to share with family and friends! Give it a thumbs up if you think it's DELICIOUS, and please be sure to leave your comments below! HUGS!

[@missstone7846]

Kristina is great! I watch her channel almost everyday. Because of her I am almost fully raw. I have more energy, my skin is improving, I'm happy, and I don't lay around all day. I love going to the market every few days and getting fresh wonderful beautiful colorful foods! As with anything sugary sweet eat it in moderation! Duh!

[@speak4creator]

Shame there was a Mcdonalds add to start do you have any control over your adds!!! The pumpkin pie is amazing!!

[@rashaunmichelleable]

Thank you for this recipe Kristina. I have watched videos on raw pumkin pie from a few folks online and now after your video finally made it! (My pumpkin has been sitting on my counter for weeks!) AND IT IS SO DELICIOUS! Thanks for all you do. Ciao!

[@soilmanted]

The pie crust isn't exactly "low sugar." It isn't low fat either, although pecan oil still in the pecans, has more micronutrients than even expeller pressed. Not sure I'd like raw pumpkin. Eat the whole pie yourself? NO! WAY too many dates. It would make me feel sick. One slice, fine, but not the whole pie. Not everyone has a Vitamix blender. They are very expensive. About 2 or 3 times as much as your Cuisineart processor. 10 times as much as an ordinary blender.

[@Michelle-pn9xt]

You can add fewer dates. Nobody is going to get sick because they eat healthy foods. Do you get sick if you eat regular cokies,cakes and pies? Everything that she used was healthy. Everything does not have to low fat. We need fat in our bodies. Nuts and foods like avocados are good for you.

[@Boboelise]

Just use a food processor. You don´t have to eat the whole pie..

[@orelpap]

! So good ! thx Kristina for this. It will make lot of costumers happy in the restaurant where I work in France.

[@viennapiedra2030]

Why did you say vanilla If you don't need vanilla

[@substance1]

All the stuff you make is phenomenal. It all looks so utterly delicious. I would rather have this a million times more than a regular pumpkin pie.

[@jessicah.8921]

She says in the start of the video you need vanilla bean, but she never adds it to the crust or the filling?

[@staciegreen8659]

she probably forgot to add that part when she was editing the video.

[@wickedrocketelvispel]

I cannot even tell you how many times I've watched this video! I love it!

[@olbas2]

you said it was low fat it is full of fat, it is also full of carbs

[@siscassie1]

I made this pie for thanks giving.... WOW! It was sweet!

[@getrektm8992]

pecans aren't low fat

[@tinaa140]

Nuts have healthy fat

[@Sunflwrbtch]

Lol the ending made me laugh haha . Awesome recipe I'm going to try it

[@lotopauankaz.4500]

low fat pecans?

[@jonmrteener1162]

I really love my Breville Juice Fountain which I'm using for more than a year now but still working perfectly, I'm juicing fruits everyday. I got mine from Amazon and I saw they are on sale now for Breville Juice Fountain: amzn.to/1bIprIY

[@falleneira1]

I made this for our family Christmas dinner and it was delicious. Everyone loved it, it was sooooo flavorful! Two Thumbs Up! :)

[@rolandhugihard2487]

Pecans have 71 grams of fat per 1/2 cup, you put at least 2 cups of pacans in there. 71 x 4 =284 grams of fat = Not a low fat desert Please do not lie to people about health and be more transparent, not all of us just blindly watch and listen.

[@Joliejojolie]

There's actually 71 for an entire cup...and she straight out says she's only using a cup and a half.

[@D25F91]

Remember, the total amount of fat is for in the ENTIRE pie. You're not gonna eat the entire pie in one day all by yourself are you? You'll just eat one slice per day maybe. Therefore, low fat. And remember, even though it is fat, it's the fat from nuts. Which are good for you and your body needs a little amount of it every once in a while. Better to think twice before you call people liars!

[@TessaLyn]

Wow, maybe she didn't mean to lie, maybe she did this thing that all humans do called 'making a mistake.' You are surly not perfect.

[@elwoodenchanted]

@D25F91 she literally says "I give you permission to eat this whole pie yourself"

[@Zirkonlowe]

Yeah but its good fat, your brains run with good fats

[@SaiyanDom]

This recipe almost burnt out my Vitamix Blender, I even chopped up my dates into small pieces! IDK how you do it. Phenomenal recipe though, tasted amazing! Thanks again!

[@AmyIndigoo]

it's so ironic because the ad before this video was an egg commercial :/

[@miwuebdoxuwn193]

I really want to try this!!!!! KRistina seems like she has the mind of a 2nd grader

[@spiritually_drunk]

What is your problem? Do you just naturally say mean things?

[@miwuebdoxuwn193]

I never said it was a bad thing, what I meant to say was that she seems like a kid at heart, you know goofy, optimistic, fun-loving, silly, cheerful, dorky...in a good way

[@leybrabear]

No offense intended but if you're only interested in getting recipe (& not her) she becomes downright annoying taking up too much extra time centered on herself.

[@spiritually_drunk]

If these are her videos, which they are, and that's what she wants to do, then you should get over it. That doesn't mean she needs to be insulted.

[@pancakesandtea]

I love it when she just randomly starts eating, so endearing

[@lamllemaussade]

Uh-oh! Hope Grandma doesn't watch your videos! :P

[@Greenandgorjus]

OMG!! I just made this and... WOW is it GOOD!! I used 1/2 sweet potatoes and 1/2 pumpkin bcuz I wasn't sure my pumpkin would be sweet enough. This is the BOMB!! Thx for sharing Kristina!!

[@furfishandsiscat]

Just so everyone knows, FullyRawKristina got her publicist to aggressively threaten Rawvana with legal action to stop copying her style because she made a few recipes similar to Kristina's. How is that displaying the love and respect that Kristina always preaches? This is a girl just starting out in the raw food youtube community and this is how Kristina decides to welcome her. She demanded (via your branding agency) that she remove some of her youtube videos because they violate or breach her copyright. I would strongly suggest everyone ask her about this until we get an answer or clarification from her. Take what you will from this. What I'm taking from this is that Kristina is definitely not the cute, sweet, loving person she makes everyone believe she is.

[@Thecodexnoir]

aubrey and amber riiiiiiight.... go away cheagans.

[@perrylynnw]

bought some persimmons today, and im waiting for them to get ripe so i can make this. SO EXCITED!!!!

[@andrielisilien]

I am noticing she is forgetting single ingredients in her videos. This one is the vanilla bean. She announces it but never shows it being put in.

[@armandoosuna6525]

You're too much I love youuuu!LOL Thank you for the recipes I can't wait to use them !!

[@Jewelrybynikki]

Can we be best friends? 😄

[@claudialott962]

I tried this dish too, and it was wonderful! You could barely tell the difference in taste between raw pumpkin vs cooked pumpkin. It is really rich, a small portion satisfies your taste buds.

[@chiledoug]

Raw pumpkin ridiculous...You have really gone over the edge with this one...BTW have your Thyroid checked.....

[@growingandflowing]

not trying to be negative or mean but her neck area does actually look a bit large and weird!

[@chiledoug]

YUP..

[@phoenix2038]

could you elaborate a bit more? how would eating raw pumpkin affects the thyroid?

[@chiledoug]

separate issue..

[@chiledoug]

that was the BTW

[@rachelmiller3476]

LOVED IT!!! I made it for thanksgiving and omgoodness!!!! It really is the best pumpkin pie I've ever had! Thank you Kristina :)

[@CynthiaOlsenAuthor]

I am making this for the family. it's easy- nutritious and looks delicious. Thank you

[@tigergreg8]

I've seen vids on making raw pumpkin pie, but this is by far the best one so far. I never knew their were different types of pumpkins until someone emailed me and told me so. I could totally eat this pie. BTW. the ending was hilarious. Thanks.

[@standaway1]

She's fantastic lol.. Usually I'd be bored by this kinda stuff but she has such a captivating personality and the food looks a-ma-ziiiiing ;)

[@jeffshubert]

I just made this and it was really delicious! Next time I might add a little coconut oil to help it firm up better. Thanks Kristina!!

[@rebeccaanderson4136]

That looks amazing. Just starting my Raw journey so this is perfect for the upcoming holidays. Thanks!

[@CircusVegan]

Omg Kristina! This is the most Ah-Mazing raw dessert i've ever made myself! I love all things pumpkin and always get a gloomy about it this time a year since following 80-10-10. The only raw pumpkin recipes i've been able to find in the past were WAY HIGH fat. This is fantastic! -and for anyone wondering about the blender, I don't have a vitamix myself and all I did was put the persimmon in first to help get it started. Final product was not as smooth but perfectly fine. Very Tasty!

[@tammyrenfro]

I love it and the ending was great. Love love love that movie.

[@andspilledredwine]

it really was the raw carrot cake cupcakes.. more than anyone, you have motivated me to move closer & closer to a fully raw diet. if there's a raw option, why wouldn't I choose it? I already eat tons of vegetables & fruits but I'm looking for more options. this weekend I went out and bought the vitamix blender and a spiralizer. I will be trying the carrot cupcakes and cinnamon beet marinara. your videos truly inspire me. this lifestyle has made sense for so long. thanks for all your videos
