a raw cake for superheroes!

Here's a recipe courtesy of a lovely lady, Sophie Weldon, Planeteer of Captain Planet & the Planeteers that I shared a meditation or two with in Sydney.

Its a creamy coconut, blueberry and lemon cake. Raw, vegan, sugar free, superfood filled deliciousness. 

As they say in India "Health is wealth" and here's a wealth of goodness to fill the bellies of the superheroes out there.

Base

1 cup walnuts

½ cup activated buckwheat (or almonds)

½ cup pitted dates (around 8-9)

1 tsp cinnamon

½ tsp nutmeg

½ tsp sea salt

Filling

1 ½ cups cashews, soaked overnight in 1 ½ cups coconut cream

¼ cup coconut oil

½ cup yoghurt (I used Co Yo coconut milk yoghurt)

¼ cup coconut nectar (or maple syrup)

¼ cup chia seeds

Juice and zest of one lemon

1 tsp vanilla bean extract

1 cup frozen blueberries

Use a food processor to mix all the base ingredients. Once combined and like crumbs press it in the bottom of a cake tin. Put it in the freezer until the filling is ready. Add all the filling ingredients to a high speed blender and mix until all creamy. Add more sweetener if you need it. Pour on base and set in freezer for 3 hours. Defrost for 30-45 min before serving.
