Healthy Lamington's from Krumble
If you haven't heard of Kiera Rumble you must be living under a rock. She is a bombshell health and life style blogger and famous (292k) instagrammer @krumble
She did the same Dr Liu re-haul I did and it changed her life.
She was one of the few that supported me through it- even though we have only met once face to face (the power of social media)
She is a passionate health activist and has this killer Lamington recipe I had to share with you all.
Enjoy!

Coating
½ tablespoon cacao (cold pressed if strictly Raw)
1 teaspoon coconut oil
¼ cup rice malt syrup
1 pinch of himalyan sea salt
1 cup desiccated coconut
INSTRUCTIONS
To make the sponge:
Blitz in a food processor cashews until they are broken down into a crumb like size, add in all of the remaining ingredients and pulse.
Tip:
Don’t blitz too much, you want it all to just come together and work it with your hands into the trays.
Line a tray with baking paper, and spread out your mixture. Depending on how tall you want your lamingtons to stand will determine what height you spread the mixture out (I gave myself about 1-2cm so I would have a nice tall lamington).
Tip:
If you are all about portion control, make these smaller in height so you get less in one serve!
Pop in the fridge to let the sponge set for approx. 1-2 hours.
To make the chia jam:
Check out our recipe here.
Chocolate coating:
Melt your coconut oil (if raw work the coconut oil until liquefied) and mix remaining ingredients into a small bowl.
Assembly:
Cut your sponges into equal portions. Line a tray with fresh baking paper. Dip your individual squares into the cacao mixture and leave bottom side naked. Dunk your cacao sides into a bowl full of desiccated coconut and coat evenly. Pop back into fridge for 30 minutes so the cacao can set.
Once set, spread your jam onto the naked side of the lamington, and pop on top of the paired square. Repeat until all of your squares have matching buddies.
Best served straight out of the fridge!
Tip:
If you aren’t strictly raw and vegan, to make these less bitter (with the cacao) melt dark chocolate and dip your sponge straight into the melted pot.
