Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Soak 1½ cups of shelled pistachios in distilled water overnight. Rinse and remove skins for smooth filling.
  2. In a food processor, blend 1 cup of roasted buckwheat, 1 cup of oat flakes, ¼ teaspoon of Himalayan pink salt, and ¼ cup of cacao powder. Add 6 pitted Medjool dates, 3 tablespoons of coconut oil, and 3 tablespoons of maple syrup, then pulse until dough-like.
  3. Combine soaked pistachios, thick part of 1 can of chilled coconut milk, ½ cup of vanilla soya yogurt, ½ cup of maple syrup, 4 tablespoons of coconut oil, and 1 teaspoon of almond extract in a high-speed blender. Blend until silky smooth.
  4. Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan, ensuring even spread. Tap the pan to release air bubbles. Freeze for 2-3 hours until set.
  5. Once set, remove from springform tin and garnish with ¼ cup each of chopped pistachios, chopped dark chocolate, and dried rose petals. Let thaw for 30-40 minutes before serving.
