Cranberry Cheesecake Bars Recipe by Nourish Everyday www.nourisheveryday.com

Serves: 12

Ingredients For the base: • 1 cup walnuts • ½ cup almonds • 1 cup dried cranberries (fruit sweetened, preferably organic) • 2 tbsp rice malt syrup (or raw honey, however the slice will no longer be vegan) • 2 tbsp chia seeds • 1 tsp cinnamon • 4 tbsp water

For the topping: • 2 cups cashew nuts (to be soaked 3 hours in water then drained) • 3 tbsp coconut oil • 3 tbsp Norbu • Juice of 1 lemon

Method 1 Soak the cashew nuts for the topping. Put them in a container and cover with filtered water, and set aside for about 3 hours. 2

While the cashew nuts are soaking, make the base. Place all the base ingredients in a food processor and pulse until the mixture forms a crumb (it’s okay if a few chunky bits of fruit and nuts remain). The mixture should stick together when you pinch it with your fingers.

3 Take a slice tray, tin or baking dish and line it with clingfilm (I used a 22cm square cake pan). Press the base mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the container. 4 Place the base in the freezer to harden while you finish the topping. 5 Once the cashew nuts have finished soaking, continue with the topping. Drain the cashew nuts and place them in the food processor with the coconut oil and the Norbu. Blend ingredients together until very smooth. 6 Towards the end of the blending process, add half of the lemon juice and pulse briefly to blend in. Taste test. If you prefer it more tangy, add the rest of the lemon juice. 7 Spread the cashew topping evenly over the base. Return the slice to the fridge or freezer to set (the fridge will take 3-4 hours; the freezer about an hour or so).

Note:

Keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, or alternatively, store in the freezer for a longer shelf life (2 months) and a firmer slice.
