Sugar-free vegan cheesecake or flan base

This base can be used for tarts, flans and cheesecakes. There’s no need to bake it, it doesn’t contain any sugar or animal products and it’s healthy, yet it tastes gorgeous and sweet!

Make sure that dates are soft and sticky. You will need a small food processor/grinder/mixer/chopper.

Ingredients to fit 20″ form:

150-200g dried soft dates (not caramelised)
100g ground almonds
1 tbsp natural honey (optional)

Put all ingredients into the food processor, mix well until the dates are chopped in tiny pieces and mixed with almonds. When you remove it from the mixer it should be sticky and you should be able to make a ball out of it. Flatten the mixture and press into the tin. Cool in the fridge until required.
