Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Medjool dates (pitted)
- 1.5 cups Raw walnuts
- 0.5 cups Raw almonds
- 0.25 cups Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 tablespoon Cacao powder (optional, for garnish)
- 1 cup Fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Ensure your Medjool dates are soft and sticky. If they are a bit dry, soak them in warm water for 10–15 minutes, then pat them dry before using.
In a food processor, combine the raw walnuts, raw almonds, and shredded coconut. Pulse until finely ground, but take care not to over-process into a paste.
Add the pitted dates, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the food processor. Blend the mixture until it starts to clump together and form a sticky dough. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Line the bottom of a 6–8 inch springform pan or a small tart pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
Press the date and nut mixture firmly into the pan, creating an even surface. Use the back of a spoon or your hands to smooth it out.
Optional: Sift cacao powder over the top for a light dusting of chocolate flavor.
Refrigerate the torte for at least 1 hour to firm up before serving.
Slice and serve the torte as is, or garnish with fresh berries for added color and flavor.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
