What makes my prepared desserts special?
They are flourless, sugar-free, and not baked. When preparing desserts, the most important thing for me is that they are nutritious, delicious, and quick to make. The cakes are very filling, super nutritious, but after eating a piece, you don't feel heavy, and that is true superfood.
Eat without guilt!
APRICOT LAYER CAKE
You will need a cake pan, we recommend one with easily removable sides for easier removal of the finished cake.
Base:
1 glass of sunflower seeds
1 cup of almonds
1.5 cups of soaked dates in water for 2-3 hours (30 min - 1 hour)
2 tablespoons of cocoa
2-3 tablespoons of coconut oil
A pinch of salt
Middle layer:
2-3 bananas
Lime peel
Top layer:
1.5 cups of dried apricots soaked in water (30 min – 1 hour)
1 cup of soaked raisins
Preparing the base:
With the food processor featuring an S-shaped blade, we grind sunflower seeds and almond nuts, leaving some granules instead of turning them into a smooth paste.
Soaked dates in water are placed in a blender and blended to obtain a date paste. The consistency should be similar to jam. Then, we mix the blended dates with ground nuts and sunflower seeds, add cocoa, melted coconut oil, and a pinch of salt. Everything is mixed well. We use this mixture to line the cake pan.
Middle and upper layer:
On top, we place sliced bananas and sprinkle with grated lime zest (we only grate the green layer, as grating the white part will result in bitterness).
We prepare the top layer. We place the soaked apricots and raisins into a food processor. We blend them and spread them over the banana layer.
The cake is ready and can be eaten immediately. Or you can briefly put it in the freezer. You can keep such a cake in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Enjoy your meal!
