Delicious "ice Cream" Pie

I wanted to make something yummy for dessert tonight, so I just kind of used my imagination and thought of some of the good tips I'd seen here. Here's what I came up with.

Decadent Coconut K-Too Pie

1 Package Kinnikinnick K-Too's

2 pints Sharon's Coconut Sorbet, softened

1/4 C Slivered almonds

1/4 C + 1 Tbs. Butter, Margarine, coconut oil or other oil

Put about 15 K-Toos into food processor with slivered almonds. Process until everything is fine crumbs. Stir in Butter (or whatever) until crumbs are moistened. Press crumb mixture into pie pan.

Mix Coconut sorbet and 3 more crushed K-Toos well. Spoon very carefully into crust. Freeze for at least 2 hours. Cut and serve. (Note - you might want to exercise after this. It's NOT low calorie!)

You could use regular ice cream, Rice Dream, Good Karma Rice Cream or your favorite vanilla or coconut frozen dessert.

That sounds so delicious! If I could find the Sharon's Coconut Sorbet around here, then I would make it. I might just have to make room in the ice chest next time I do my major shopping and pick some up from Whole Foods. I'll have to make the crust before hand, since the sorbet will be "softened" by the time I get it home!

Oh Liz, THANK YOU!! What a great idea!!

I've been stewing about Carleigh's birthday because she just hasn't liked any of the cakes I've made. I was thinking about trying to do something with her raspberry sorbet or Tofutti ice cream. This would be PERFECT. She LOVES K-TOOS!

The K-toos and the Sharon's Coconut Sorbet are both soy (protein) free. I don't recall if either have soy oils in them, but I don't react to those. I've eaten both items without reaction, and even the slightest amount of soy protein makes me insanely itchy!

Hi Judy! The cookies and sorbet both have soy lecithin in them. I'm very sensitive to soy, but the lecithin doesn't bother me at all. I know it does some people though. (The Food Allergy and Anaphalaxis Network says that soy lecithin is safe even for people with severe soy allergies.)

I made the crust and put some raspberry sorbet on top. The crust got rock solid so we had to sort of chip it out of the pan. She loved it though!

Oops, I forgot to mention that I sprayed the pie pan with non-stick spray. My crust was pretty frozen too, but I could cut it with a butter knife and then it came up pretty well.

I'm glad she liked it!

I'm not familiar with K-Toos; what are they?

K-Toos are gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free "Oreo" style cookies made by Kinnikinnick. They're REALLY good! You can find them in some stores or at Open Original Shared Link .

I tried K-too cookies this past week @ camp, but I cannot find any websites to order them on. Does anyone have their website or know what places sell them?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
