Instructions

In a blender or food processor, combine the crust ingredients.
Blend on low speed until it starts to clump together. You may have to add 1-2 tablespoons water depending on how moist your dates are.
Line a 6-inch spring form pan with parchment paper on the bottom. Press the crust into the pan.
Chill.
Combine the filling ingredients in a blender and blend on high until smooth and creamy.
Pour on top of the crust.
Pulse the frozen strawberries in the blender until broken up into pebble-sized chunks. Scatter on top of the cake.
Freeze overnight or for at least 8 hours.
Thaw for 5 minutes or so before slicing and eating. Keep in the freezer for up to a week.

Notes

*Can substitute other kinds of nuts, seeds, or oats. **Can substitute with other kinds of nut butter, but raw cashew butter has the most neutral flavor and tastes best.
