Mango coconut cream pie

This dessert doesn’t have much eye appeal, but it’s yummy and very healthy.The cashews and chia seeds contain protein, calcium, iron, and essential fatty acids. We used coconut cream and diluted 50:50 with water to make coconut milk. You could even serve this dish with your morning porridge or muesli.

1 cup of cashews, soaked, rinsed and strained
1/4 chia seeds (to make 1/2 cup chia seed meal)
1/4 cup coconut oil, liquified
1/4 cup raw honey or coconut sugar
2/3 cup coconut milk
1 mango, sliced
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp vanilla extract

  1. Soak the cashew nuts for at least 3 hours beforehand.
  2. Grind the chia seeds in a coffee grinder, or similar, to make chia seed meal.
  3. Add all of the ingredients to a food processor and puree.
  4. Pour the mixture into a pie dish and refrigerate overnight or at least 8 hours.

Serve with fresh fruit.
