SALTED HONEY AND FIG CHEESECAKE
SALTED HONEY AND FIG CHEESECAKE
Ingredients:
Crust:
2 1/4 cups of almond flour
2 cups dates, seeds removed
1/4 cup pecans
1/4 cup walnuts
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Cake:
3 cups cashews, soaked
1/4 cup fresh squeezed lemon
juice
1 1/4 cup almond milk
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping:
2 tablespoons raw honey
hot water
Maldon sea salt to taste
a basket of ripe, sweet figs
Method:
– Soak cashews for at least 4 hours, overnight if you can
– Combine all of the crust
ingredients in a food processor fitted with an S blade and pulse until
combined. You may need to hand stir in order to help the food processor
along with this at points. I prefer my crust some of the nuts not completely
broken down, I like the texture they add. But pulse until you’re pleased with
the consistency.
– Press crust “dough” into a 9″ springform pan, using wet
fingers to form it into a solid crust. Place in the freezer until ready
to assemble.
– Drain the cashews and
discard soaking water. In a Vitamix or other high
powered blender, combine the cake ingredients and blend until smooth. You
will need to use the tamper tool (I call it the mixing stick), to help the
blender along.
– Scoop cake topping into
spring form pan and spread evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for
at least 2 hours.
– To serve, remove from
freezer, remove from pan and let sit for 15 minutes. Combine raw honey
with warm water until it softens and becomes easily drizzled.
– Clean figs, place three in
the center of the cake and slice remaining figs into quarters (or arrange them
however you’d like!)
– Drizzle cake and figs with
honey (more or less to your preference) and sprinkle generously with Maldon
salt (the salt is a critical part, so feel add just a little and serve with a
separate side of salt to sprinkle on to individual taste!)
– Enjoy!

How to Use Manuka Honey
How to Use Manuka Honey
To
experience the most benefit, you should take a dose of about 1-2 tablespoons of
Manuka honey a day. The easiest way is to just take it straight, but if it is a
little too sweet for you, then you can add it to your favorite herbal tea, over
yogurt, or on sprouted grain toast.
If
you want to enhance the immune boosting effect or heal a sore throat, add 1
teaspoon cinnamon. Research shows that the
antimicrobial properties of cinnamon and Manuka honey are so powerful,
that they can really help you recover fast!
