3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
4 dried apricots (soaked until soft)
2 cups flax seeds (powdered)
1/2 cup hemp seeds
1/2 cup almond milk or 1/2 cup coconut water
2 tablespoons coconut butter (melted)

FOR THE PIE:.
Blend the pumpkin in a food processor with the S blade until relatively smooth.
Place the puree pumpkin in a glass bowl with the coconut water or plain water on top. Place the bowl in the dehydrator and dry for 5 hours at 140'F.

Drain the apricots. Save the water or drink it, its full of goodies.
After the pumpkin is dehydrated remove and blend it on high in a high powered blender with the rest of the ingredients.
Set aside.
