A fine example of how quick, easy, delicious and absolutely GORGEOUS raw desserts can be. An all-raw blueberry cake masterpiece by Iselin Støylen of A Vegetarian Taste that will light up those taste buds, nourish your body, and inspire feelings of serious gratitude and joy.

Ingredients

Bottom layer:

  • 3 cups / 6 dl almonds
  • 20 dates
  • pinch of salt

Second layer:

  • 2 cups / 4 dl cashews (soaked)
  • 1 cup / 2 dl fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup / 2 dl water
  • 5 dates
  • 2 tbsp agave or honey
  • 3-4 tbsp coconut oil (melted)

Instructions

To make the first layer:

1. Add all of the ingredients to the food processor until everything sticks together.

2. Use your fingers to press the crust out in a cake tin.

For the second layer; the blueberry cream:

1. simply add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend until you get a thick, smooth batter.

2. Spread the batter over the crust and let the cake sit in the refrigerator for at least 5 hours.  I put mine in the freezer, and then I took it out a couple of hours before I served it.

3. Decorate the cake with fresh blueberries or whatever else you would like.

Enjoy!
