Ingredients

For the Crust:

  • 1 pack (284g) Natural Delights Coconut Mini Medjools
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ginger
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup (56g) almond flour

For the Filling:

  • 1 cup (240ml) key lime juice (or regular lime juice)
  • 1 tbsp lime zest
  • 2/3 cup (140g) cane sugar
  • 1/2 cup (60g) tapioca starch (or cornstarch)
  • 1 13.5oz can (400ml) coconut cream, shaken
  • Optional: 1/4 tsp matcha powder (for color)

Instructions

  1. For the Crust: Line an 8×8″ square pan with parchment paper. Pulse the Coconut Mini Medjools, spices, and salt in a food processor until broken down and sticky but not one ball. Add the almond flour. Continue pulsing until the texture is large crumbles. Press into the bottom of the pan. Set aside.
  2. For the Filling: In a medium saucepan with the heat off, combine the cane sugar, tapioca starch, and 1/2 cup of the coconut cream. Whisk until no lumps remain. Turn the heat on medium, and add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil whisking constantly. Reduce to a simmer, and continue cooking for 5-6 minutes whisking frequently until thickened. Remove from the heat, and cool 5 minutes. Pour on top of the crust, smooth evenly. Refrigerate overnight.
  3. Slice into 16 squares, top with coconut whipped cream and a sprinkle of lime zest, and enjoy.
