2. In a small bowl, mix 6 tablespoons of water with 2 tablespoons of chia seeds to form a chia egg.
3. Place your chia egg and the remaining jam ingredients into a food processor.
4. Spread jam over the Primal Bars using aluminium foil to hold bars & jam in place if your tin is too large.

7. Place cheesecake in the freezer overnight – or for a minimum of 8 hours -, by which point your dessert should be frozen solid.
8. Take out of the freezer and removing aluminium foil, allow to defrost.
9. Cut into 3 slices, using the Primal Bars as a guide.
10. Voila! Your Hazelnut & Cocoa Superfood cheesecake is now ready to eat.

*PRIMAL TIP* If you’re not a big fan of chocolate, why not switch up the Cacao Ganache for a Beetroot Ganache using Of The Earth Superfood’s Beetroot Powder and try using the Coconut & Macadamia primal bars, instead of the Hazelnut & Cocoa ones, for the ultimate summery sweet clean treat!
