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)

Directions

Step 1

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.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

Line the bottom of a 6–8 inch springform pan or a small tart pan with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

Optional: Sift cacao powder over the top for a light dusting of chocolate flavor.

Step 7

Refrigerate the torte for at least 1 hour to firm up before serving.

Step 8

Slice and serve the torte as is, or garnish with fresh berries for added color and flavor.

Step 9

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
