Raw Coconut and Olive Oil Gelato

I found the base recipe of this gelato at the The Raw Chef Blog. I tweaked the recipe quite a bit, and I loved the results. Sorry no pictures for this one - but I assure you there will be good ones when i serve it. I'm doing a second dinner with the same menu on October 5th which the lovely Laurel Dailey has agreed to shoot.

Raw Coconut and Olive Oil Gelato
*Meat-free, Dairy-free, Egg-free, Wheat-free, Soy-free

2c cashews

½c coconut butter/oil

1/3 c honey

2c almond milk

1/2c + 2 Tbsp olive oil
 (first cold pressing is best...the stronger the flavor the better)
Pinch salt

Soak Cashews in water for 4-6 hours
Blend all ingredients in Vita-Mix until smooth. Taste for sweetness, you may need to add extra honey if your clementines weren’t that sweet.
Pour the mixture (unfrozen) into an ice-cream maker.
