Yule Log


 
Custom Search

  You will want Raw organic nuts, a handful each of whatever kind you prefer, I used hazelnuts, cashews and almonds... Chop them up carefully. Also I added a good handful of raw organic ground almond (from bulk section at health food store).

Add dried fruits. I used raw organic raisins, golden raisins, dried apricots, 4-6 figs, 4-6 Medjool dates.

Add some fresh fruit. Blend up two fresh apricots, or a few strawberries, or a banana for instance and add.

Add a big dollop of raw organic almond butter. Mix it all in a big bowl with a sturdy fork. If your dried fruits are too dry to cling together, you may have to moisten the mix with a few drops of fresh squeezed orange juice.

On a piece of wax paper (kitchen parchment paper) form the mixture in the shape of a log. Sift raw organic carob powder through a tea strainer over the log and sprinkle ground almond over it, too.

Voila! there's your Yule log. (or raw-vegan xmas fruit cake)
