2 cups pitted dates
2 cups fresh pineapple

Preparation:
Add walnuts, coconut, vanilla and cinnamon to bowl of a food processor and process until a fine meal then put into a large mixing bowl. Then add dates to food processor and blend until a paste then add pineapple and chopped bananas and blend until roughly chopped and combined. Add wet mix to dry mix and stir until well combined then press into a cheeze cake pan, I put paper on the bottom to stop in sticking. Smooth the top and refrigerate for about 4 hours then run a knife around the edge and release it from the pan and slide onto a plate then spread frosting..

Frosting

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups cashews or macadamias
1/2 cup agave or honey
Lemon - juiced and zested.

Keep blending until smooth then spread onto cake and sprinkle with coconut and lightly crushed Kitz Cinnamon Agave walnuts
