No Bake Strawberry Lemon Bites
These No Bake Strawberry Lemon Bites consist of three amazing layers, the macadamia and date base, lemon layer and the strawberry layer on top. These delicious mini raw cheesecakes are super easy to make and have the most amazing flavour.
Ingredients
Base Layer
- 6 medjool dates
- 1/3 cup raw macadamias or cashews
- Pinch of sea salt
Lemon & Strawberry Layers
- 1 cup macadamias or cashews
- Juice and rind of 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
Instructions
- Make the base. Process the macadamias (or cashews) in a food processor or blender until they resemble fine crumbs. Then, add the dates and sea salt and process until a sticky dough is formed. Spoon mixture into a 24 mini muffin pan and press down with the back of a teaspoon. Place in the freezer while you make the next layer.
- Make the next 2 layers. Place all filling ingredients (except the strawberries) in the blender/food processor and process on high until very smooth. Spoon about 2/3 of the mixture onto the bases and smooth with the back of a spoon and place in the freezer to set for 10 - 15 minutes.
- Process strawberries. Add the strawberries to the remaining filling and blend on high until smooth. Spoon the strawberry filling onto the lemon layer and place into the freezer until they set completely, approximately 2 hours.
Notes
- The additional time of 2 hours is the time it takes for the recipe to set in the freezer.
- Keep stored in the freezer in an air tight container and remove them a few minutes before serving/eating.
- I recommend using either a mini silicon muffin tray, mini muffin liners or cut out little strips of baking paper to use as tabs at the bottom of the regular mini muffin tray, to make it easier to remove them from the muffin tray.
