Serves 2
Ingredients
1/2 cup sunflower seeds (or mixed with other seeds)
1/4 cup desiccated coconut
2 tblsp cocoa powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
6 dried dates, with stones removed
1 apple
a few strawberries and a teaspoon extra coconut to decorate
Method
Grind the seeds in a food processor or blender. Add the coconut, cinnamon, cocoa and dates, and process briefly until mixed. Cut the apple into quarters and remove the core and stalk, but don't peel. Cut each piece in half, and add to the food processor or blender, and process until fairly homogenous.
You may need to scrape down the sides of the food processor, depending on its size. With a large one, it may be easier to double all the quantities. However if there are still pieces of recognisable apple or date, it's not a problem.
When it's mixed well, place in a serving dish or tin, and press down firmly. Sprinkle a little coconut on the top, and some halved strawberries, then put in the fridge for an hour or two.
This doesn't cut like a cake, but makes a fairly firm dessert.
