Ingredients

For the Dip:

  • 1/2 cup Raw Unsalted Cashews soaked in water overnight (75g)
  • 3 tablespoons Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Honey or agave
  • 1/2 teaspoon Raw Vanilla Extract
  • pinch of Sea Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Coconut Oil melted

For the Pinwheels:

  • 4 tablespoons Coconut Oil softened to room temperature (should be the consistency of softened butter)
  • 4 Whole Wheat Tortillas or gluten-free tortillas (8-inch)
  • 4 tablespoons Coconut Sugar
  • 4 teaspoons Cinnamon
  • Toothpicks

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Drain the water from the cashews and add them into a SMALL food processor (mine is 3 cups.)
  • Add in the almond milk, honey, vanilla and a pinch of salt and blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary. This make take 4-5 minutes to get smooth.
  • Once smooth, with the food processor running, stream in the melted coconut oil until well mixed.
  • Transfer the dip to a bowl and refrigerate to thicken.
  • Divide the soft coconut oil between each tortilla (about 1 tsp each) and spread out evenly.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the coconut sugar and cinnamon. Divide between the tortillas, sprinkling over the coconut oil to completely cover each tortilla.
  • Roll each tortilla up tightly and slice each into 8 bites. Insert a toothpick into each bite to secure it.
  • Place the bites on a pan, cut-side down, and bake until the filling is soft and melted, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Serve warm with dip and DEVOUR immediately!

Notes

I have doubled this recipe and made it in a high-powered blender, and 6 Tbsp of almond milk was a little too much. If you do this, start with 4 Tbsp and adjust. You want the dip thick and creamy.
