Step-by-step
- Prepare the crust: Add oats to a food processor and process into a fine flour. Measure out 1 1/2 cups and add to a bowl. Add the remaining crust ingredients and stir until crumbly and wet. Line an 8-inch cake pan with plastic wrap, press the dough into the bottom, and refrigerate.
- Prepare the cake: Melt coconut butter until liquid. In a large bowl, whisk together milk, syrup, lemon juice, and vanilla. Stir in cinnamon and salt. Pour in melted coconut butter and whisk until smooth and thick. Pour batter into the prepared crust and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
- Once set, remove the cake using the plastic wrap and slice. Top with coconut cream, cinnamon, and strawberries (optional). Store in the fridge.
