Servings: 8
Ingredients
For the Nutty Base Layer
1 cup mixed nuts (I used almonds, pistachios, and cashews)
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup medjool dates, pitted and sliced
2 tablespoons flaxseeds
2 tablespoons honey
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
For the Cheesecake Layer
8 oz vegan cream cheese
1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
fresh figs
Instructions
Line an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch loaf pan with aluminum foil. Spray with nonstick spray. Set aside.
In your food processor, add nuts, cranberries, coconut flakes, dates, and flaxseeds. Pulse until small chunks remain. Add honey and cinnamon and pulse again until incorporated and mixture sticks together when pressed between your fingers.
Pour into the prepared loaf pan and press into an even and flat layer. Place into your freezer.
Clean your food processor and add cream cheese, coconut flakes, maple syrup and vanilla. Pulse until everything is creamed together. Spread in an even layer over the nut layer and return to the freezer for at least 2 hours or until ready to serve.
Before cutting into slices, arrange sliced figs on top, cut and enjoy!
