Raw Coffee Cake

Ingredients:

1 cup Almonds

1 cup pitted Dates

pinch Cinnamon (or pie spice blend)

1 tsp Coconut Oil

Frosting:

1/8 tsp Cinnamon

1 large apple, cored (skins on)

1 cup Cashews

2 cups unsweetened Shredded Coconut

2 tbsp Honey (plus extra for drizzling on top)

2 tbsp brewed Coffee (room temp or cold)

1/4 cup chopped Pecans

Pulse almonds, dates, pinch cinnamon and coconut oil together in a food processor until crumbly (this may take a few minutes). The “dough” should stick together she you press it between your fingers. Press it firmly into the bottom of a glass cake or bar pan. Add 1/8 tsp cinnamon, apple, cashews, coconut, honey and coffee to the food processor and blend till a creamy thick consistency is reached (about 2-3 minutes). Spread the “frosting” over the date and almond mixture. Sprinkle pecans on top and drizzle with honey. Put into the freezer for about 10 minutes to set.  Enjoy! Store leftovers in the fridge or freezer (in an airtight container marked “mixed veggies” so you can have it all to yourself).
