Recipe Directions

1. Place the nuts in a food processor and blend till they are smooth.

2. Add the soaked dates and agave nectar and blend till the mixture is combined.

3. Place the nut and date mixture into a bowl. Mix in all the dry ingredients and add the vanilla extract and orange zest.

4. Mix through the dried fruits.

5. Shape the mix into bars or Christmas pudding shapes (I use an ice cream scoop to do this).

6. Place on a Teflon sheet and put into the dehydrator for 12 hours, turning once about half way through. The cake/bar should be firm but still tacky inside.

Veganbear's Thoughts

By veganbear

I’ve never had a Christmas cake in my life and wanted to make one for Christmas to take into work, and what better way to turn people onto raw food than through cakes?

This recipe will work well as a cake or bar.

Sorry about the photo. It was the best I could do with as all of the other cakes were eaten as soon as they came out of the dehydrator.

This is about the coolest thing ever. You could add a little rum extract (or some actual rum or whisky if you are so inclined) to make it real traditional. Just don´t set it on fire, that wouldn´t be too raw would it? ;)
