Ingredients
- Crust:
- 300g almonds, blended
- 150g coconut flakes, slightly roasted, blended
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 15g (1 tbsp) sweetener (i used Sukrin Gold)
- 25g (1 tbsp) coconut oil
- 1/2 lime zest
- Salt and vanilla to taste
Filling:- 100g butter, melted
- 80g sweetener (i used Sukrin Icing Sugar)
- Pinch of salt
- 2 eggs
- 6 egg yolks
- 12g gelatine (7 leafs)
- 100ml lime juice (of 4 limes)
- 200g coconut milk (i used Santa Maria Extra Creamy Coconut Milk)
- 100g coconut oil
Top layer:- 500g strawberries
- 200ml/g water
- 50g sweetener (i used Sukrin Icing Sugar)
- 12g gelatine (7 leafs)
Directions
- Step 1 For the crust wash the almonds and let them dry out again.
- Step 2 Slightly roast the coconut flakes (and almonds also if you like) 160C about 5minutes, until they turn slightly golden.
- Step 3 Let then cool down and blend in a foodprocessor until becomes a flour. Mix with coconut oil, season and press into the base and up the sides of a 28cm loose-based tart tin.
- Step 4 For the filling beat the eggs together with melted butter, sweetener and pinch of salt. Add coconut milk and oil. Heat the mixture on a low heat until it warm enough for the gelatine to dissolve. Then whisk in pre soaked gelatine leaves. At last add the lime juice.
- Step 5 Let the mixture cool down and pour into the crust. Put it into refrigerator or freezer.
- Step 6 For the top layer slice the strawberries and strain the juice. Add 200ml water and sweetener to the juice and heat it on a small saucepan until it becomes warm enough for the pre soaked gelatine leaves to dissolve. When this mixture is ready and the gelatine is dissolved, add the strawberries.
- Step 7 When it is completely cooled down, pour the mixture to the cake. Let it sit another hour in the freezer or couple of hours in the fridge.
- Step 8 Can be served half-frozen or just chilled. I love it half-frozen! Decorate with fresh strawberries.
