You Will Need (16 things)

  • Crust

  • 2 ¼ cup Unsalted Almonds
  • 14 Large, Fresh, Pitted Dates
  • 2 ½ tbsp Coconut Oil melted, but not hot
  • 1 pinch Fine-grain Sea Salt

  • Filling

  • 1 cup Strawberries (Fresh or Frozen)
  • ½ cup Raspberries (Fresh or Frozen)
  • 1 Medium-sized Banana
  • 1 ½ tbsp Lemon Juice (or the juice from 1/2 a lemon)
  • ½ cup Honey
  • 1 cup Mascarpone Cheese
  • 1 cup Greek Yogurt (or cottage cheese)

  • Topping

  • 1 cup Fresh Fruit
  • 2 Edible Flowers (optional)

Steps (3 steps, 45 minutes)

  1. 1

    Make the Crust
    Grind the almonds in a food processor for about a minute (or until they are finely chopped)
    Add the dates, coconut oil and salt to the processor and blend until it all comes together.
    Flatten the almond mixture on the bottom of an 8-inch non-stick spring form.
    Store in the fridge while the filling is being prepared

  2. 2

    In a blender (or food processor), add the berries, banana, lemon juice and honey.
    Stir together mascarpone, greek yogurt, and the blended berries in a large bowl.
    Pour it on top of the crust in the spring pan and put the pan in the freezer for 1-2 hours (you'll want to let it soften a bit before serving)

  3. 3

    Top the cake with fresh fruit and a couple of flowers (optional)
    Serve immediately
