Ingredients:

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
• 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
• 3/4 cup maple syrup
• Barker’s Fruit Compote (your choice of flavour)
• 1 cup raw cashews, soaked in water for 2 hours
• 1 cup full fat coconut milk
• 2 Tbsp honey or maple syrup
• 2 Tbsp coconut oil
• 3 Medjool dates, pitted
• 1 tsp vanilla
• Juice of 1 lemon
• Pinch of sea salt

Method:

Preheat oven to 180 deg Celsius.

Place the rolled oats, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds & maple syrup into a food processor and pulse until combined and coarsely chopped.  You are not after a fine crumb.

Spread onto a baking tray and bake for 30 minutes or until golden.

Clean the food processor and add all remaining ingredients except the compote.  Combine until a smooth consistency is reached.

Layer the cooked seed base in the bottom of a glass, followed by the cheesecake mixture, topped with compote.

Chill for 1 hour prior to serving.
