Ingredients
- Medjool dates (natural sweetener and binder)
- Raw almonds or walnuts (for texture and healthy fats)
- Coconut oil (adds richness and smoothness)
- Fresh lemon juice (alkaline booster and flavor enhancer)
- Maple syrup or agave nectar (optional additional sweetness)
- Almond milk or coconut milk (dairy-free creamy base)
- Chia seeds (for thickening and nutrition)
- Raw cacao powder (for chocolatey flavor without acidity)
- Fresh berries (blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries)
- Vanilla extract (for added aroma and depth)
- Sea salt (to balance flavors)
- Ground cinnamon or nutmeg (optional warming spices)
Equipment
- High-speed blender or food processor
- Mixing bowls
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Spatula
- Loaf pan or silicone molds (depending on dessert type)
- Whisk
- Glass jars or serving bowls
Instructions
- Prepare the base: Soak 1 cup of raw almonds overnight in filtered water to soften. Drain and rinse before use.
- Make the crust or base layer: In a food processor, combine 1 cup pitted Medjool dates and the soaked almonds. Pulse until the mixture sticks together and forms a coarse crumb.
- Press the base: Transfer the mixture into a lined loaf pan or tart dish. Press firmly to create an even layer. Chill in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
- Prepare the filling: In a blender, combine 1 cup almond milk, 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted), 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 3 tablespoons chia seeds, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Flavor variations: Add 2 tablespoons raw cacao powder for a chocolate filling or 1 cup fresh berries for a fruity version. Blend again until fully incorporated.
- Pour and set: Pour the filling over the crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the chia seeds to thicken the dessert.
- Garnish and serve: Before serving, top with fresh berries, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or chopped nuts for added texture.
- Store leftovers: Keep any remaining dessert in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Tips & Variations
For a nut-free option, substitute almonds with sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds.
Use coconut cream instead of almond milk for extra richness.
Swap lemon juice with lime juice for a different citrus twist.
Add a teaspoon of spirulina powder for a vibrant color and superfood boost.
If you prefer a crunchier texture, toast the nuts lightly before processing.
Feel free to experiment with different fruits, nuts, and natural flavorings. For instance, a tropical twist with mango and shredded coconut is delicious, or try adding a hint of ginger for warmth.
