Raw Cacao Pecan Whoopie Pies

I was walking past store the other day and they had whoopie pies in their window. Of course the first thing I thought was, we need a raw food version of those! I got home and set to work, coming up with a cinnamon pecan filling instead of the traditional vanilla one. Full of nutritious ingredients, these make a wonderful treat or dessert. The filling is fast and easy and the actual cookies are easy, too. They do require rolling out and dehydrating so leave yourself time for that.

    After I peel them off the non-stick sheet, do I then place them on the mesh tray? Thanks for the great recipes!

    These look tasty.. I’ve been close to transitioning into raw foods for awhile now. This website made me happy with its available recipes! This one is on a to-do list now. I read some of the comments asking about coconut butter, and as a little DIY tip, there is a video on YouTube where a guy has made a video on making your own coconut oil and coconut butter, etc. Which is always terrific since it is so very expensive.

      I have seen those but wonder if the taste comes anywhere near the quality of the ones that are made. I will have to experiment because after all, your finished product is only as good as the ingredients.

    These look really delicious! I was wondering if you have any suggestions on substitutes for agave? I have read that the fructose content is higher than high fructose corn syrup and that it is actually not raw or unprocessed.

    If you don’t have a dehydrator can you use a oven? And if you can at what temperature and for how long?

      You could try but you wouldn’t be able to keep the temp low enough to keep it raw. But it would still be healthier than the “traditional” version. Since I don’t make these the traditional way, but use the dehydrator, you will have to experiment with times, etc.

    Ready to try this- a few questions first. For oat flour, could I just put 5 min. oats in my Vitamix dry container to make flour? Is coconut butter the same as coconut oil? Alright, the rest looks easy.

      Coconut oil is not the same as coconut butter. But could be substituted. You won’t get the same flavor. If you can get your oats flour to a silky consistency. I usually sprout and then dehydrate the oats before making the flour.
