INGREDIENTS

Base

1/2 cup Pureharvest Organic Almonds,

1/2 cup Kialla Pure Foods Organic Rolled Oats / Lotus Organic Quinoa Flakes (for a gluten free option)

1/2 cup pecans

1 cup medjool dates (about 10)

2 tbsps Pureharvest Rice Malt Syrup,

Zest of 2 lemons

1 cup cashews, soaked

1/2 cup Loving Earth Raw Organic Coconut Oil 

1/4 cup Pureharvest Rice Malt Syrup,

Juice of 2 lemons

 

METHOD

Base

In a food processor blitz together the almonds, oats (or quinoa flakes) and pecans until they form a coarse meal. Add the dates, Rice Malt Syrup and lemon zest and process until they form a sticky mixture.

Press the mixture into the bottom of a 20 x 20 cm baking tray lined with baking parchment or cling film. Place the base into the freezer to set while you prepare the topping.

Topping

Place the cashews into the food processor and blitz on high speed for about 2 mins. Add the remaining ingredients and blend for a further few minutes until a smooth and creamy consistency is reached. Spoon the mixture onto the base and place back into the freezer to set.

Make sure you remove the slice from the freezer about 20-30 mins prior to serving.
