1 garlic clove (minced)

Roll one tablespoon of the mixture into a ball, then roll it over the chopped Brazil nuts. Do this with the remaining mixture and then store it in an airtight container in the fridge to get softer balls. If you prefer a harder consistency, then we recommend storing them in the freezer.

Ingredients

Crust

• Six pitted Medjool dates
• 1 cup of raw cashews

Filling

• Three tablespoons of melted coconut butter

Instructions

Ready to start making this easy no-bake vegan cheesecake recipe?

• Start by taking eight cupcake liners and lining your muffin pan with them. Keep them to the side for now.
• To create the crust, combine your pitted dates and cashews in a high-powered blender or food processor and start pulsing. Keep pulsing until the cashews break down considerably, at which point the batter should be sticking together. 
• Use a teaspoon to divide the crust between the eight pans, pressing it onto the bottom and them aside. 
• Combine the ingredients for the filling in the food processor, leaving out the fruit preserves for now. Blend at medium-high for about a minute, or however long it takes for the mixture to become creamy and silky smooth.
• Equally, divide the filling batter onto the prepared crusts. To add more flavor, you can also top it off with jam.
• Cool in the fridge for a minimum of 2 hours so that it sets.
• Serve chilled.

We love looking for tasty and unique ways to use Ezra Cohen Montreal nut butters in recipes, and we think that we’ve nailed it with this super savory side dish, featuring Brussels sprouts, almond butter, and just the right amount of spice.

These Brussels sprouts make an excellent side dish for summer barbecues, and they’re equally great served up as a lunch entree. For a more complete and well-balanced meal, top with a seared or grilled piece of salmon, or serve this dish up as a salad substitute. However you decide to enjoy them, we’re confident that these sweet, spicy, and nutty Brussels sprouts will become a mainstay of your summer meal rotation.

Here’s how to make them.

Ingredients

1 pound fresh, uncooked Brussels sprouts, trimmed and cut in half (or cut into quarters, if they’re large)
Olive oil
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp mustard powder
Salt and pepper
¼ cup Ezra Cohen Montreal All-Natural Almond Butter
2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
2 tbsp liquid aminos or soy sauce
2 tsp sambal oelek or Sriracha (gojuchang would be delicious here, too!)
2 tsp honey or maple syrup
¼ cup shredded carrots
¼ cup dried cherries
¼ cup toasted almonds, chopped

Directions

1. Start by roasting your Brussels sprouts. Preheat your oven to 400 degree Fahrenheit and lay trimmed and cut Brussels sprouts out on a baking sheet covered in parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, onion power, mustard powder, salt and pepper. Mix to combine then spread out Brussels sprouts in an even layer. Make sure that they’re not overlapping, since this will cause them to steam instead of roast. Roast until golden, about 18 to 20 minutes.

2. While your Brussels sprouts are roasting, make your spicy almond butter dressing. In a large bowl, combine Ezra Cohen Montreal All-Natural Almond Butter with sesame oil, fresh lime juice, liquid aminos or soy sauce, sambal oelek or other chili paste, and honey or maple syrup. Whisk to combine and set aside.

3. Once your Brussels sprouts are tender and browned, transfer them to the large bowl with your spicy almond butter dressing and stir to coat. Then toss in your shredded carrots, dried cherries, and toasted almonds. (Hint: toast your almonds whole in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and fragrant, then chop.)

Want to mix it up? There are lots of inventive ways to make this recipe all your own, including swapping out Brussels sprouts for another veggie such as beets, broccoli, or cauliflower (just adjust the roasting temperature and time as needed). You can also opt for different mix-ins, such as dried cranberries or pineapple instead of cherries, or toasted pecans or walnuts instead of almonds.
