Cooking method

  1. Step 1:

    Step 1

    Prepare and measure out all the ingredients. Some ingredients need to be prepared in advance. Rinse the dried pears and raisins thoroughly and cover them with clean water for 2 hours. Also wash the green buckwheat and cover the kernels with water for several hours. You can leave the dried pears, raisins, and buckwheat soaking overnight instead. The pumpkin seeds just need to be rinsed several times before you start.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2

    For the bottom layer, take the soaked pears, raisins, and pumpkin seeds and run them through a meat grinder. You can do this twice.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3

    Then add the carob to this mixture. Knead the dough well so it's dense. We won't sweeten it, since the raisins, pears, and carob are already sweet.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4

    Now take a springform cake pan and line the bottom with parchment so it'll be easier to move the cake out of the pan later.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5

    Spread the mixture evenly over the bottom of the pan. Level it with a spoon.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6

    For decoration, arrange cashew halves along the edge. Put the pan in the freezer so the bottom layer of the cake firms up.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7

    Meanwhile, make the top of the cake. First, take 300 ml of water and dissolve 1 tablespoon of agar-agar in it. Put this mixture over low heat and, stirring occasionally, bring it to a boil. Then leave it to cool, but make sure it doesn't set.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8

    While the agar is on the stove, rinse the blueberries, rinse the soaked buckwheat, and drain the liquid. Put it all in a blender, add the stevia powder, and blend all these ingredients together. Don't forget to set aside a handful of blueberries to decorate the cake.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9

    Wash the avocado, scoop out the flesh, add it to the already-blended ingredients, and run the blender again.

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10

    This is the kind of smooth mixture you should get.

  11. Step 11:

    Step 11

    When the agar has cooled but is still liquid, add it to the berry mixture and mix quickly. If it starts to form lumps, put the mixture back in the blender and blend again.

  12. Step 12:

    Step 12

    Then take the pan out of the freezer and pour in the top layer. The cold pan will start to set it right away, so you need to decorate the cake quickly.

  13. Step 13:

    Step 13

    Take the washed raspberries, blueberries, cashews, and shredded coconut and decorate the cake with them.

  14. Step 14:

    Step 14

    Then grate the chocolate over the top to finish the decoration. Put the cake pan in the freezer for 30 minutes.

  15. Step 15:

    Step 15

    After half an hour, take out the cake, check that it has set, and remove the side of the pan. Carefully transfer the cake to another plate or platter. Our no-bake, sugar-free, flour-free cake is ready!
