Cherry Pie is one of my favorite pies and especially when fall is here. What’s even better is when that pie is so good for you that you don’t have to feel guilty eating it. This Plant Based Vegan Cherry Pie nourishes you with cherries that are full of antioxidants and a healthy omega rich flax and almond crust. Your body and your tastebuds will be thanking you!
