Ingredients
- For the base
-
1 1/4 cups
almond meal
-
1/3 cup
desiccated coconut
-
3 tablespoons
coconut oil
-
Zest from 1 lemon
- For the filling
-
2 2/3 cups
filtered water
-
1 tablespoon
agar agar powder
-
1/3 cup
arrowroot flour/starch
-
5
medium-sized lemons, juiced
-
Pinch turmeric
-
2/3 cup
maple syrup
-
1/2 cup
coconut milk
Directions
-
Mix all the base ingredients together in a bowl until coconut oil is evenly mixed through. Spread out in a lined tin or dish and refrigerate until needed.
-
Whisk arrowroot into lemon juice then add turmeric, maple and coconut milk and continue to whisk until combined. Set aside.
-
Add the agar agar to the filtered water and gently heat, stirring until agar is dissolved. Once you have reached this point, add the lemon-arrowroot mix and whisk continuously over a medium heat. After about 8 minutes, it should start to hold together. If it doesn’t, keep it over the heat a little longer.
-
Pour the lemon mix on top of the base and return the dish to the refrigerator for 1-2 hours until set. When set, slice and plate. Serve on its own or with a scoop of vanilla or coconut-flavoured ice cream.
