Difficulty/Easy
This is a great way to introduce people to the wonders of antioxidant-rich matcha green tea powder! This is an easy dessert but displays beautifully and is creamy and divine.
Ingredients
Crust
- ½ cup dates
- ½ cup shredded coconut
- ½ cup pecans
- pinch of salt
- ½ teaspoon of coconut oil
Filling
- 1 ½ cups of raw cashews, soaked for 4 hours
- 1 ripe banana
- 3 dried figs soaked in warm water to soften
- 2 teaspoon of matcha powder
- 3 tablespoons of almond milk

Instruction
Crust

- Press the base into the bottom of your spring form cake tin and set aside while you make the filling.
Filling
