Difficulty/Easy
There is something about the creaminess of the avocado, the sweetness of the mango and the tartness of the lime that just makes this dessert perfect! Great for a warm spring or summer day- its a little like a bite of sunshine.
Ingredients
Crust
- 1/3 cup of sunflower seeds
- 1/3 cup of coconut flakes
- 1/3 cup of soft dates
Filling
- 1/2 a ripe avocado
- 1 medium size ripe mango
- 1 lime- juice and zest
- 1/2 cup of cashews, soaked for 4 hours then strained and rinsed well
- 5 drops of vanilla flavour stevia
- 1/3 cup of coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons of almond milk
Instruction
Crust
- For the crust- combine the seeds, coconut and dates in a food processor and pulse until the mixture comes together, it should be a sticky dough but still have texture.
- Press the base into 2 small 11cm spring form tins. I love using these small size cake tins, you can use a larger tin or if you want a full size cake, simply double the recipe (both the base and filling- its easy!)
Filling
- For the filling- place all the ingredients into your high speed blender and blend until completely smooth. This may take a few minutes. Try placing the mango and liquids in the blender first to assist the blending process! You can add a dash more almond milk if you need a little more liquid but the mixture should be quite thick!
- Pour the filling evenly into the two cake tins and place in the fridge to set for 2-3 hours.
- Top with passionfruit pulp and enjoy!
