Antioxidant-Packed Raspberry Coconut Tahini Pudding (Raw, Vegan, Paleo!)

Raspberry Coconut Tahini Pudding

It's nearing the end of August, however that does not mean summer is over yet. Or berry season for that matter. And we plan to take full advantage while it lasts!

Have you visited a u-pick raspberry farm this summer? Stocked up on several pints at your local farmer's market? If so this will be the perfect treat to highlight one of summer's juiciest and most flavorful gifts. Aside from an explosion of fruity sweet-tart flavor, raspberries also offer a wealth of health benefits - most notably due to their high antioxidant content. Raspberries contain a flood of Vitamin C and quercetin, both of which help squelch free radicals - particularly important if you're spending time soaking up the sun's UV rays. They are also a good source of fiber, manganese, magnesium, potassium, copper, vitamin K,vitamin E, panthothenic acid, biotin, and omega 3 fatty acids. True nutritional power houses!

Any raw tahini lovers in the house? Your favorite sesame butter just so happens to be another all-star ingredient in this recipe. The flavor combination going on here with fresh raspberries, coconut, tahini, and vanilla is simply to die for. It really is the perfect summer treat and it couldn't be easier or quicker to make.

Enjoy!
