Directions:
Soak the dates in water for one hour. Then mix them into a smooth mixture or use a ready-made date paste. Add oats to the dates and mix well together so all the individual ingredients combine. You should get a smooth, sticky mixture. Prepare a cake tin (we used a tin with a diameter of 18 cm) and spray it with coconut oil spray. Place the date mixture on the bottom of the tin, spread it evenly with your fingers and create a base.
Let’s start preparing the cream. Mix the protein and coconut milk in a small pot. Bring this mixture to the boil, and add agar after 2-3 minutes while stirring. Pour the coconut mixture onto the base, let it cool and let the cake harden in the fridge for a few hours. Serve the cake decorated with grated coconut, nuts or protein spread, or however you like. Bon appétit!
