Preparation Steps:
Commence by rinsing the dried fruits in cold water to eliminate any preservatives and activate their nutrients. Soak them for 15-20 minutes.
While the fruits are soaking, slice the almonds and roughly chop the cashews.
Lightly roast the pumpkin seeds and pine nuts in a dry pan until fragrant to enhance their flavor.
After soaking, pit the dates and chop them, along with the dried apricots, into small pieces.
In a blender, combine the soaked dates, apples, dried cranberries, raisins, and apricots. Blend until smooth.
Integrate the sliced almonds and roasted cashews into the fruit blend for an added textural element.
Stir in the sesame seeds, reserving some for garnishing.
Add the pumpkin seeds, pine nuts, and flax seeds to the mixture, elevating both its nutritional content and flavor.
Thoroughly combine all the ingredients to achieve a well-blended texture.
Shape the mixture into a cylindrical log.
