Servings: 12 small rounds
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 1 cup cacao powder
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1/2 cup of dried berries or fruit of choice
- 1/2 cup of raw nuts of choice
- 1/2 cup of sprouted pumpkin seeds
- coconut flakes for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Warm a pan over low heat and add the coconut oil.
- Wait for the coconut oil to melt, then add the cacao powder and mix.
- Add the honey and mix again.
- Remove the pan from heat, add the nuts and the seeds and mix all ingredients well.
- Next line a large muffin pan with muffin cups and fill each muffin cup 1/2 of the way full with mixture. If needed, use a tablespoon to spread the nut/berry mixture evenly into each cup.
- Finally, chill in the refrigerator for about 2 hours or until the mixture is completely hardened.
- Sprinkle with coconut flakes, if desired, before serving.
Notes
- This recipe yields 12 small or 6 large rounds depending on the size of the muffin pan and muffin cups you choose to use.
- You may use a baking pan instead of a muffin pan and then cut the hardened block into squares, but I prefer using the muffin pan to eliminate the additional step.
