Recipe's preparation

    For base
  1. Line a 19cm square pan with baking paper.

     

    Add almonds to bowl and dry roast 8 mins Varoma temp speed 1.

     

    Add remaining ingredients and mix 30 sec speed 7. Scrape down sides. Repeat 2-3 more times. You want a consistency a little coarser than coarse breadcrumbs.

     

    Press mixture evenly into base of pan and refrigerate 30 mins or until firm

  2. For filling
  3. add coconut oil and mix 20 sec, 50 degrees, speed 3. If coconut oil is not melted by this time, mix another 10 sec or so (this will depend on the ambient temperature - it will be quicker in summer and take longer in winter)

     

    add remaining ingredients and mix 1 min, speed 6. Scrape down sides, and mix 30 seconds, speed 8.

     

    Spread mixture evenly over base in the pan.

     

    Freeze one hour or until firm.

  4. For topping
  5. Add coconut oil and mix 20 sec, 50 degrees, speed 3.

     

    add remaining cacao and maple syrup and  mix 20 sec, 50 degrees, speed 3.

     

    Pour over date caramel mixture and sprinkle over salt flakes. 

     

    Put in freezer to set (the coconut oil will separate out if you leave at room temp - it will still taste nice, it will just look swirly on top)

Tip

This recipe is adapted for the Thermomix from the Australian Women's Weekly Sugar Free cookbook (p162)

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

This recipe was provided to you by a Thermomix ® customer and has not been tested by Vorwerk Thermomix ® or The Mix Australia Pty Ltd and The Mix New Zealand Ltd.

    OMG!!!! I’m doing an excited dance....haha. If you haven’t tried this, geez you are missing out, this will be a regular around here on rotation with bliss balls and granola bars. This tastes absolutely amazing! I know there’s a fair bit of sugar in it with the maple syrup (which I ran out of so only used 115g in the filling) & still very sweet. This is healthy compared to other sweet stuff you could eat. Thanks for posting x

    Yum! Made this tonight - so happy with the result. I didn't have enough maple syrup so used golden syrup and only 75g in filling instead of 150g - still delicious. Thanks for the recipe!
