Nutty Ice Cream Cake

Servings 12

Ingredients

Base

  • 2 c caramelised buckinis (buckwheat cereal) OR crushed plant-based cookies
  • 1/2 c virgin coconut oil softened

Filling

  • 2 c vanilla ice cream
  • 2 c banana sliced and frozen
  • 1/2 c peanut butter
  • 1/4 c chopped almonds

Instructions

  • Line the base of a 9-inch springform pan with baking paper.
  • Process the dehydrated buckwheat cereal in a food processor until fine but still with some crunchy texture (like breadcrumbs with some chunks). Add melted coconut oil and pulse again until well combined, then press firmly into the bottom of the pan and place in the freezer.
  • Now blend together the ice cream, frozen banana and nut butter in your processor until completely combined.
  • Spoon filling evenly into pan and sprinkle the top with chopped nuts. Place in the freezer for at least an hour or overnight.
  • Remove from the freezer five minutes before serving and cut into slices. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Make it nut free: use watermelon seeds instead of cashews in the vanilla ice cream, and use your favourite seed butter in place of the peanut butter - tahini could be lovely!
  • You could also use almond butter in place of the peanut butter.
