I made this for lunch. It filled me up so much, didn’t eat another thing until salad in the evening and even then I struggled with that!
As ever, all measurements are approximate. Soaked ingredients were soaked for about 3 hours, a bit longer than this is probably good. There quantities were just for myself (although it might serve 2 if you’re not quite as greedy as me!)
Soaked ingredients:
- 150g hemp seeds
- 50g sesame seeds
- 20g pumpkin seeds
- 20g hazelnuts
- 3 dried figs
- 3 dried apricots
- handful currants
Fresh/dry ingredients
- 1 banana
- 2 sharon fruit (persimmons)
- piece of fresh coconut meat
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- 1/4 tsp maca powder
- 1/4 tsp hemp leaf powder
- 1 heaped tsp raw chocolate powder
- 1 tablespoon cacao nibs
- 1 tablespon of flax seeds (I’m sure it would have been better to soak these but I forgot)
Put everything, including the soak water from the dried fruit into a blender and blend. I might have added a bit of water, I can’t remember. I didn’t make it completely smooth, it was crunchy and I liked it like that. I think to make it smooth would need a fair bit of water.
Now, on the surface it might look a bit like the chocolate pudding recipe, but the main difference is that you don’t make hemp milk, the whole hemp seeds go into the blend and this is what makes it particularly filling.
Hope you like it! Rob
