History

Evolution is everywhere with this version of the tarte Tatin (upside-down apple pie). I think I may have told you before, right? I believe we need to start changing people’s eating habits. Wholesome pies with no added refined sugar, there is such a thing. Pies are always yummy, but you’ll totally flip for this flipped over apple pie sweetened with date puree! Easy to make, I recommend not even peeling your apples. Seriously? Yesski. I like to keep things simple in the kitchen. And this is the perfect dessert for impressing your guests Psst! To make your pie just that extra bit more decadent, have you considered using caramel date puree?

You know what? You can serve this pie without flipping it over or you can flip it just before you serve it. You’ll have all your friends and family oohing and aahing! They’ll think you’re a celebrity chef. Hahaha!

This recipe will feature in my upcoming cookbook, available in summer 2021.

FAQ

Where can I buy Madame Labriski date puree?

At IGA, Rachelle Béry, Marché Tradition and Bonichoix grocery stores across Quebec. My purees contain no preservatives and can be found in the fruit and vegetable section (yes, dates are fruit) near the pre-cut fruit and vegetables. If you can’t find them, simply ask a member of staff!

Is almond powder the same thing as ground almonds?

Yes. Almond powder, ground almonds, almond flour… they’re pretty much the same thing. Almond flour is available at supermarkets but the almonds are ground more finely. That being said, when a recipe calls for almond flour, you can easily use ground almonds instead.

What can I use as a substitute for almond powder or hazelnut powder?

You can always substitute one type of nut powder for another type of nut powder or even powdered seeds (sesame seed or sunflower seed powder). You can also replace almond powder with organic tiger nut powder. (Tiger nuts are a tuber.)

What can I use as a substitute for one type of nut?

Simply any other type of nut you have in the cupboard (almonds, cashews, pecans, etc.). For example, if you don’t have any walnuts, you can use pecans. The important thing is not to tear your hair out!
