Nectarine Upside Down Cake

I love the fresh juicy nectarines from the farmers market right now...season is almost over so I use them in everything...I am happy to be able to go the market every Saturday morning now and it is only a 15minutes walk from our new home..so here is a recipe for raw nectarine upside down cake!!!

Ingredients:

4 cups sliced nectarines ( you could also use peaches of course)
3 cups almonds
2 cups dates
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut
2tbsp maple syrup,date syrup or coconut nectar



Slice nectarines,transfer into bowl and add maple syrup.Mix and set aside.
Process the nuts and dates in a food processor into a crumbly-sticky mixture.
Transfer to a mixing bowl and add coconut.Mix thoroughly.
Empty half of the nectarine mixture into a spring pan.
Empty half the almond crumble mixture on top of the fruit.
Firmly press the crumble crust down.
Repeat with the other half of the nectarines and the crust.
Set in fridge for at least 30 min.
Sprinkle coconut on top and serve with fresh sliced fruit,coconut whipped cream or even coconut ice cream.

Enjoy the last weeks of the summer!!

Love Jennifer
