Raw Cashew & Passionfruit Tart

Hello there! So I've finally got round to starting my own blog after numerous requests for my recipes and ideas for healthy food... here goes!
I am a thirty-something mother of 2 little girls, a part-time yoga instructor and I have a passion for healthy living and nutritious food. I like nothing better that a few hours on my own in my kitchen, trying new recipes and techniques, exercise, and good books.

Today it poured with rain, so after an early morning visit to the organic farmer's markets, I spent the afternoon in my kitchen, bliss! I made fresh almond milk, a green juice, and a raw cashew & passion fruit tart.

Here is the recipe for the tart... enjoy!

Raw Cashew & Passionfruit tart

Filing:

1.5 cups raw cashews, soaked
1 cup almond milk
5 passion fruits
3 lemons, plus rind
1/2 cup coconut oil
agave syrup

Crust:

1 cup organic nuts
1 cup desiccated coconut
1/2 cup dried apricots, soaked
3 dates

Blend all the ingredients for the crust together till they form a coarse mixture. Gently press into a spring-form pie tin to cover the base and press up the sides.

Blend all the ingredients for the filling together for about a minute at high speed till creamy and smooth. Gently pour into the pie base and allow to set in the fridge for a few hours.
