Cuisine: Raw, Vegan
Serves: 1 Cake
Ingredients
For the Crust
1 cup shredded coconut
½ cup oat flour
1 cup chopped pineapple, dehydrated (1/4 cup)
1 teaspoon grated ginger
¼ cup powdered coconut sugar
2 tablespoon coconut nectar
⅛ teaspoon pink himalayan salt
1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon lime zest
For the Kiwi layer
1 +1/2 cup cashew, soaked
4 kiwi, peeled
¼ + ⅛ teaspoon spirulina powder
1 teaspoon matcha powder
3 tablespoon coconut nectar
⅛ teaspoon pink himalayan salt
¾ tablespoon sunflower lecithin
3 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
2 tablespoon nut milk
½ tablespoon lime juice
Instructions
For the Crust - dehydrate 1 cup fresh pineapple (yields approximately ¼ cup when dried). Add the base ingredients to a food processor and process until it resembles fine crumbs and sticks together when pressed. Press into the base of lined 6-inch square cake tin and place in the freezer.
For the Kiwi layer - Start, of course, by soaking your cashews (put them in a jar and pour water till top of jar so they soak in for at least 4 hours or overnight). Add all the ingredients (except lecithin) to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Then add in the ¾ tablespoon lecithin and pulse to combine. Pour the cream over the base. Pop in freezer at least 4 hours to set (overnight is ideal).
Decorate with fresh, chopped kiwis and lime slices. Store in the freezer for 2 weeks or in the refrigerator for 4- 5 days. Before eating, allow to sit for 10-15 minutes on room temperature. Enjoy!! Xo
