No bake wagon wheel slice! Something a little bit

No bake wagon wheel slice! Something a little bit labour intensive, but fun all the ssme.

What did you think of today, Melbourne? Are you feeling hopeful, or just like the carrot was replaced with a stick?

Biscuit layer

1 cup activated almond flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/3 cup rolled oats
Pinch salt
2 1/2 Tbsp pure maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

Marshmallow layer

1/2 cup coconut butter (softened*)
1/3 cup coconut yoghurt
2 Tbsp coconut oil, melted
2 Tbsp pure maple syrup
2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Jam layer

1 cup raspberries
1 tsp chia seeds
Splash water

150 grams dark chocolate
1 tsp coconut oil
Method

1. Add the first 3 ingredients in the biscuit layer to a food processor, and pulse to form a flour. Add remaining ingredients and set aside.

2. Add the jam ingredients to a heavy based saucepan. Cook over a low-medium heat for around 10 mins, or until jammy and thickened. Turn off heat and allow to cool for 5 mins.

3. Add all marshmallow ingredients to a blender, and blend until very smooth. Set aside.

Assemble:

1. Add a layer of the biscuit mix to the bottom of 6 x silicone bar moulds. Add a layer of jam, then transfer to the freezer to firm up for 20 mins.

2. Add a marshmallow layer to each bar, and again set in the freezer for 20 mins.

3. Add a second layer of jam, followed by a final layer of biscuit (the bars should now be flush with the top of the mould). Transfer to the freezer and freeze completely, at least 2 hours.

4. After this time, melt the chocolate and coconut in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water. Turn off heat. Remove bars from the freezer and moulds, and line a small baking tray with baking paper. Dip each bar into the chocolate, and place on lined tray. Set in fridge, and allow to defrost for 3+ hours. Store in an airtight container, and enjoy x * to soften coconut butter, sit the jar in a pot of hot water until it becomes liquid

Immune boosting hot chocolate elixir with medicina

Immune boosting hot chocolate elixir with medicinal mushrooms + maple. This drink is just like an elixir straight through to my veins! Its rhick, creamy, full bodied and packed with all the amazing herbs that I'm loving right now. I made this for my beautiful friends @bareblends , who I've worked with and used their products for YEARS.

You can easily simplify the recipe below, just choosing 1 of the adaptodgens (whatever you have, or want to try). I used the @bareblends cacao powder, chaga, maca and my personal fav: lionsmane.

If you're new to 'shrooms, investigate! Like herbs, each has their own unique benefits, and I personally love them for their ability to norish the immune system (and gave noticed a huge benefit). Anyway, feel free to ask specific mushroom Qs below 🌈💕 #BareBlendsPartner #sponsored

Serves 2

You'll need

2 mugs preferred milk (we used almond)
30 grams cacao butter (buttons, or grated)
2 heaping dessert spoons raw cacao powder
Pinch salt
1 tsp chaga powder
2 tsp maca powder
2 tsp pure maple syrup
1 tsp lions mane powder

Method

1. Add milk to a saucepan and heat until almost boiling (around 70 degrees is perfect, but you can just heat until it feels too hot to stick your finger in).

2. Add warmed milk to a blender with the remaining ingredients. Blend for around 20 seconds, or until well mixed and fluffy * (see notes)

Serve between 2 mugs with your bestie. Enjoy!

Notes:

* DO NOT blend hot liquid in a blender not designed to do so (the mini ones that are sealed, with no steam hole). We use a large blender, with the steam hole open, or you can substitute by adding all the ingredients into the saucepan with warm milk and use a stick/immersion blender.

* You can substitute the chaga, maca or lions mane for your preferred bareblends products. Reishi, cordyceps would be great replacements

Wanna make these cashew, blueberry and coconut br

Wanna make these cashew, blueberry and coconut breakfast pots this weekend? Loaded with plant protein, whole food fats and everything you need to start your day with a BANG! I love creating breakfasts like these for me and the girls, it makes eating a whole foods packed meal fun and colourful and they honestly go crazy for it, and always fight over the last spoonful.

This is made in collaboration with 'Just Organic' coconut milk, which is made from 99% coconut milk (NOT filtered water like most brands). It is so creamy and delicious, and a perfect alternative to cows milk for drinks, baking, cereal or these delightful breaky pots. You can find it at Aldis, so far in Vic and NSW. I have combined it with cashews to make a seriously filling and sustaining breakfast 'mousse', which is naturally paleo, grain free and high in protein. I know you'll love it as much as we do!

So, here is what you will need.

(serves 4)

2 cups raw cashews

3 Tbsp pure maple syrup (which is optional)

3/4 cup coconut milk

1 tsp vanilla extract/paste

1 1/2 cups frozen blueberries

Optional extras- 1/4 cup vegan protein powder, powdered adaptogens of choice (like maca, or medicinal mushrooms), Ground chia seeds or powdered superfoods.

For the compote

1 cup blueberries

1/4 cup water

Optional extras, to serve

Yoghurt

Nut butter

Fresh fruit of choice

Edible flowers

1. Firstly, soak the cashews in water for 4+ hours. If you are low on time, you can soak in boiling hot water for 30 mins.

2. Drain cashews, then add to a blender with the remaining ingredients. Blend on high until super smooth, which takes 1-2 mins depending on your blender. Once smooth, pour between 4 glasses, and place in the fridge overnight, or for 2+ hours until you're ready to serve.

3. When you're ready to eat, make the simple compote by adding blueberries and water to a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5-10 mins, or until berries have completely softened. Mash with a fork. To serve, top with compote yoghurt, granola or nuts/seeds, fresh fruit, edible flowers, nut butter.

The cashew, blueberry, coconut base will keep in the fridge for 5 days, in airtight container.
