This is an adaptation of my favorite cooked chai recipe from The Ayurvedic Cookbook by Amadea Morningstar. I fell in love with this chai from the first time I made it and now those chai drinks from the coffee shops just don’t cut it!! I just tried this raw version for the first time this morning and I could have finished the whole thing off straight from the blender!!! It takes longer to make because the mint needs to be soaked in the water like a sun tea but it is definitely worth it! I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Combine all into FoodProcessor until smooth.

so i saw the recipe for sweetpeas crunch cookies here on the site and got my heirloom peanuts the other day and wanted to practice with making my own nut butters….guess what happened? PEANUT BUTTER CRUNCH COOKIES!

Truly this has a moist, warm pudding texture just like the real pudding cake. I must say that this is one of those recipes that has to be a rare treat, even for raw…but it certainly tastes amazing.

I was really craving something “bready” and rich. I couldn’t believe how great this turned out. Every bite was amazing with banana ice cream.I don’t have a dehydrator so I put my oven on the warm setting and let it sit in there over night. It was just warm to the touch, not hot at all.Finally, I made it again this week and took a better picture

Banana Pudding with an ever so small hint of cherry.

This recipe is basically the lemon cookie recipe except for the lemon zest I use orange zest and a little orange juice and add a couple tablespoons cacao…

Who knew you can make something that so resembles the classic? And without the use of nut milk too! And yet, the first time I tasted this with cinnamon, I thought, “Hmmm… tastes like Christmas.” And my grandmother said, “Hmmm… if a person didn’t know better, they would think this is watered down cow milk.” To which I replied, “Like skim milk?!”
