Coconut Porridge With Cinnamon, Raisins & Walnuts

Creamy and flavorful, this breakfast is healthy comfort food at it’s best. To create this look, slightly pack the prepared porridge into a tall 3-inch wide cutter or ring mold and then add chopped walnuts on top. Drizzle the plate with honey, and then carefully remove the cutter to retain the shape of the porridge. Sprinkle entire plate with extra cinnamon and enjoy!

Add all ingredients except walnuts and drizzling honey to a mixing bowl and stir well. Cover and soak covered overnight in refrigerator for 6-8 hours. When ready, stir again and serve immediately with garnish of choice or store refrigerated up to 3 days. Yields about 3 cups.

Cashew - Macadamia Nut Hummus

  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 small clove garlic, peeled
  • 3/4 to 1 cup filtered water, as needed to thin

Combine all ingredients, including 3/4 cup water, in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. Add additional water, 2 tablespoons at a time, as needed to thin. Transfer to a small bowl or container and refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.

Almond Butter-Banana Ice Cream

From Practically Raw: Flexible Raw Recipes Anyone Can Make by Amber Shea Crawley, (c) 2012. Used by permission.

I’m not much of a sandwich person, but one sammy I do love is almond butter with sliced bananas. This is my “ice creamed” interpretation of that snack. The miracle of “banana soft-serve” is that you can have homemade raw ice cream in mere minutes!

  • 4 frozen very ripe bananas, broken into chunks
  • 1/2 cup almond butter -
  • 2 tablespoons agave
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of sea salt

Combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.

This ice cream is best served immediately, but you can freeze leftovers in an ice cube tray, transferring the cubes to a zip-top bag when frozen solid. To prepare the leftover ice cream, place the frozen ice cream cubes in a food processor, let sit for 5 to 10 minutes to soften just slightly, and pulse or process until smooth and creamy.

Substitutions

  • Sprouted Organic Almond butter or Sprouted Organic Cashew butter

Cocoa Coconut Love Drops

(by Judith Toscano, at The Wellness Cottage)

  • 1 ½ cups sprouted organic pecans *
  • ¾ cup raw chia flour
  • 3 tablespoons raw organic peruvian cacao powder *
  • pinch of sea salt *
  • dash of cayenne
  • ½ cup finely chopped organic medjool dates *
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • ¼ cup organic coconut oil *
  • ½ cup dried raw coconut flakes *

Using a 6 cup food processor, process the pecans by grinding them to a flour-like consistency. Into the food processor, pour the chia flour, the cacao powder, the salt and the cayenne, and process these together until all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

Add the finely chopped dates, the coconut oil and the maple syrup, process until mixture melds together. When the mixture holds together off the sides of the processor it is melded together.

Scoop the cocoa dough and drop into the dried coconut flakes, gently roll to coat the cocoa dough, place in paper liners & serve up the love!
