Directions
It’s a gorgeous dessert, and it’s a healthy one, especially when made with blueberries! A delicate fruity cake crust with crunchy fig seeds adds to the entire bouquet of flavors and textures. That said, it’s super easy to make, just the way you like it!
You can use fresh or frozen bog whortleberries or blueberries. If you are using frozen berries, defrost them beforehand, preserving their dripping juice.
You can use honey, as in the recipe, or maple syrup for sweetness.
Cashews, walnuts, and dried fruit should be soaked beforehand, as in the recipe, for a delicate texture and to minimize the anti-nutrients.
Be sure to try it! It’s delicious!

Let's start with the crust. Take the dates and figs out of the water and squeeze them out. Then put dates and figs in a food processor and grind them until you obtain a smooth paste. Add salt, ground nuts and melted coconut oil. Blend the mixture in the food processor until it is smooth. |
