How to Prepare Chestnut Persimmon Crepe Cake [Vegan]

For the Crepes:
  1. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl or a blender.
  2. Heat a nonstick pan to medium-high heat. Grease lightly with coconut oil, if preferred.
  3. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and swirl around to spread the batter into a thin round shape.
  4. Once the crepe gets a bit brown on the bottom and can be lifted easily, flip it over and cook on the other side until browned as well.
  5. Repeat until you run out of batter.
For the Chestnut Puree:
  1. Make the crepes according to the recipe and set aside.
  2. Puree the chestnuts, date, almond milk, vanilla, and salt in a food processor or a high-speed blender until smooth.
  3. Wash and slice the persimmons.
  4. On a serving plate, layer one crepe, spread 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of the chestnut puree on top, and cover in persimmon slices.
  5. Repeat the process until you run out of ingredients, topping with puree and chestnut slices
  6. Slice like a cake and serve right away.
