If you are looking for a sweet, protein packed treat with no nasties, then this is the loaf for you! This delicious orange, vanilla and raspberry loaf is easy to prepare, great for work or school lunches, and is the perfect healthy snack for when that 3pm snack attack hits!

I was thinking, it would be super easy to adapt this recipe using different flavours. I might try a few new variations over the next couple of weeks; cacao and orange or maybe blueberry, maple and pecan. The options are endless! What flavour combination would you love to see? If you do have any suggestions, let me know in the comments below!

This recipe requires a food processor, but if you don’t have a food processor you could alternatively mash the dates into the coconut milk with a fork. It will be a little chunkier but still work fine. I also like to make my own almond meal using a food processor. I find it gives the slice a little more interest and a lovely texture. Unfortunately this time around if you don’t have a food processor, mashing the almonds with a fork may not work too well. ☺

Have a great week friends and enjoy!
