Storage: Freezer (leave out for 10-15 minutes before eating)
GF RSF VEGAN
A slice combining all the best flavours! The sweet, gooey caramel complements the less sweet matcha topped with a white chocolate finish.
INGREDIENTS
Base:
2/3 cup gf oats
1 cup unsalted cashews
1/2 cup dates
1 T smooth almond butter
1 T Coconut oil
1 T Sweetener (I used date syrup but any sweetener will do)
Matcha Filling:
1 cup unsalted cashews soaked overnight
2 T matcha green tea powder
2 T pure maple syrup or sweetener of choice
3/4 cup canned coconut cream (or milk if cream unavailable)
1 tsp water
Splash of lime juice (optional)
Date caramel:
1 cup of dates
2 T smooth almond butter
1 T sweetener
Drop of vanilla essence
Toppings:
50g of your favourite white chocolate (I used Vego White Chocolate Almond)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Add all of the base ingredients to a food processor and pulse.
Add water if necessary to ensure the base will bind.
Press into a baking paper lined tray and freeze.
Drain your soaked cashews and add to the food processor or blender with the filling ingredients.
Pulse ingredients until completely smooth and add to the base. Freeze for 1-2 hours.
Cover the dates for your caramel in hot water and leave to soak for 15 minutes.
Drain and add to the food processor with your other caramel ingredients.
Blend until smooth and add to the slice.
Freeze until it firms up for around 2-3 hours.
Melt your white chocolate and drizzle all over the top!
This slice is quite rich so you might want to cut it into smaller pieces.
