RAW Mixed Berry Cake
This recipe is by >>http://lilisveganblog.blogspot.ch/2014/07/raw-raspberry-drop-cake.html
What will you need:
For the crust
- 8 Medjool dates
Place all the ingredients for the crust, except the dates, in a food processor. Pulse until you have a coarse meal. Add in the dates and process until you have a sticky dough. Press this firmly into the bottom of either a cake or pie form. Transfer the crust to the freezer to set for approximately 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling. This is done simply by placing all the ingredients into a high speed blender and blending until you have a smooth and creamy paste. If you don't have a blender, don't worry, you can as well use the food processor. However, I find that processing the cashew with all other ingredients in a high speed blender gives even a more creamier texture.
Pour the filling over the crust, flatten with a spatula and dropa few left over berries on top. Put the cake to the freezer. Leave it for at least 2-3 hours to set, preferably longer.
Take the cake out from the freezer 15-20 minutes before serving.

Oooh Yummy!!! Now I need to buy some dates...what can I use instead of oats?
ReplyDeleteYou can use shredded coconut.
DeleteI am sure you can use shredded coconut. But my boys do gluten free oats. I make a recipe like the crust but they are energy balls and it calls for coconut.
