Cacao Blueberry-licious Tart

With the abundance of delicious Blueberries in season, we can’t seem to resist buying a massive fresh bucket of them every week at the farmer’s market! Although we use them in our daily Green Cacao Superfood smoothies, there’s quite a stash of blueberries leftover each week that we’ve kept in the freezer. So yesterday I experimented with this easy & super delicious recipe. The simple recipe for Blueberry Pie from the Raw Foods Bible, became the decadent raw Cacao Blueberry-licious Tart. Mmmm! So quick, but oh so divine. Here’s how:

Oh BTW we thoroughly recommend this book of raw recipes by Craig Sommers. He’s an amazing Kundalini Yogi & Raw Foodie. Thumbs up from Sacred Earth Medicine!

Ingredients

Filling

• 5 cups blueberries
• 2 bananas
• 3/4 cup grated Sacred Earth Medicine Ceremonial Cacao (more or less according to taste)
• 1 1/2 Tbsp raw honey, agave or coconut nectar

Crust

• 2 cups almonds
• 1/2 cup dates, pitted & soaked

Preparation

Crust

1. In a food processor, grind the almonds til fine.
2. Add the dates blend til smooth.
3. Remove from the processor & pat down into a pie plate.

Filling

1. In a food processor combine 4 cups of blueberries, cacao, banana & honey. Blend til smooth.
2. Remove from processor & add in remaining cup of whole blueberries to the mix and pour into crust.
