I used a gluten-free vegan pie crust from the store for this. Use any pie crust of choice. The cinnamon crust from my Sweet Potato pie barswould work really well. Or use a date almond crust or date pecan crust (pulse 1 cup coconut and 1 cup of pecans until a meal, then pulse with 6 to 8 dates until it starts to stick, shape into crust) to omit refined sugar.
