Coconut Paleo Pie Crust

I pulled this recipe out of my archives, i'm sorry I don't have a photo to go with it, I will post one when I make again as soon as I can!

Ingredients
2 Tbs ground chia1/3 cup water1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut1/2 cup coconut flour (maybe a couple extra tbs if it seems to wet)2 tsp raw honey4 tbl cold coconut oil or grassfed unsalted butter (I used butter)2 tbl coconut oil + a little for greasing the pie dish
Method
Combine 1/3 cup of water and chia and allow to sit. I've used both my ninja and a mini coffee grinder combined with a hand mixer and both methods work well. You must grind the coconut flakes until the become the consistency of bread crumbs and starting to release their oils (you'll be able to tell when they start sticking to the sides of the bowl). Then start adding the rest of the ingredients and mixing, by the end the mixture should be almost like dough but still sticky. Press into a well greased (I used coconut oil and parchment paper) and bake on 300 for 20 ish minutes (watch the edges will burn easily). Cool before filling.
This recipe was adapted from another blog I follow and love.
