Description

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cup walnuts (or nut of your choice)
• 1 1/2 cup pitted dates, roughly chopped
• 1 can full fat coconut milk, refrigerated over night
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
• 1 cup strawberries, sliced
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1 cup raspberries
• or 3 cups of berries of your choice

Directions

• Add the nuts to a food processor or high powered blender and pulse into a course meal. Add the chopped dates to the processor/blender and blend until a dough forms. You may need to stop occasionally to scrape down the sides. The dough should stick together when you squeeze it together. If its too dry and crumbly add another date or two until you get the right texture.
• Press the crust into a 9 inch loose base tart tin. If the crust sticks to your hand as youre pressing it into the sides use a small sheet of parchment paper to keep from sticking. Set in the fridge or freezer to firm up while you whipped the coconut cream.
• If youre using a can of coconut milk make sure its one that has been kept in the fridge overnight. This allows the cream to harden so that it separates from the water and you can easily scoop it out.
• Carefully scoop out the solid cream and place in a metal or glass mixing bowl (something cold) and try your best not to get any of the water.
• Beat the coconut cream on a medium to high speed for a couple of minutes until it becomes whipped and airy. Taste the whipped cream to decide on whether or not you want to add a little sweetener. Whip for another couple of minutes to fully incorporate the sweetener if you added any.
• Spread the whipped coconut cream over the crust, using the back of a spoon to evenly spread if out.
• Scatter the berries over the top of the coconut cream in an even layer.
• Serve immediately or keep in the fridge until youre ready to enjoy.
