JACQUELINE ALWILL, BROWN PAPER NUTRITION

This one pan would have to be up there with one of my all-time favourites. The hearty nature of the cauliflower ‘steaks’ with carrots and beans makes it really substantial meal without much fuss.

GLUTEN FREE : DAIRY FREE : VEGAN : REFINED SUGAR FREE

INGREDIENTS

1 cup pitted dried dates
2 shots espresso + 1/4 cup boiling water
1 cup (150g) cashews
1/2 cup raw cacao powder
1/2 cup (125ml) coconut milk
1/2 cup melted coconut oil
150g hazelnuts, skinned and roughly chopped

METHOD

Soak the dates in the coffee and boiling water for 5 minutes.

In a food processor blitz cashews until they are a crumb then add dates, with coffee, raw cacao, coconut milk and coconut oil.

Pour into a lined 20×12 loaf tin (or something of a similar size) and sprinkle hazelnuts all over the top. Press the hazelnuts in lightly with the back of a spatula.

Place in freezer to set for 2-3 hours.

Serve and eat directly from freezer – this part important as it will maintain the texture. Enjoy! + Serves…many – you really only need a small slice of this one but let’s say serves 20 so you have a reference and don’t eat tooooo much of it.
