raw vegan cinnamon-sugar donut cake
this was a crowd pleaser at the family party! i love making healthy treats because there is nothing better than sharing something that tastes so good and is so good for you and having people love it! it's a conversation starter and gets people more interested in properly nourishing their bodies.
this is sure to be a favorite...cause who doesn't like donuts?!
donut base:
2 c raw sprouted almonds
1/2 c coconut flour
1 t cinnamon
1/2 t nutmeg
1/4 t sea salt
1 c soft pitted dates
water as needed for it to come together into dough
-add all but dates and water to a food processor and process until fine. add dates and water as needed and process until a dough forms. use 1/3 of the dough to make mini "donut" pieces & press the rest into the bottom of a 9" springform pan. set in freezer while making filling.
cinnamon sugar cream:
2 c raw cashews soaked overnight
1 can organic full fat coconut milk
1/2 c brown rice syrup or raw honey
3 t vanilla extract
1/2 c coconut butter
1 t cinnamon
-add all ingredients to a high speed blender and blend until very smooth. pour over base and set back in freezer until firm. top with donut pieces (I mixed a few pieces into the cream before hardening), sprinkle generously with cinnamon & coconut sugar & set back in the freezer until ready to cut & serve.
