Recipe type: Raw dessert
Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • Base:
  • 3 large dates (soaked in warm water for 15 minutes)
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tbsp almond butter (or other nut butter)
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup coarsely chopped hazelnuts (or almonds)
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbs maple syrup (or agave)
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • Chocolate topping:
  • 3 tbsp coconut oil
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup (or 2 tbsp agave)
  • 2 tbsp cacao powder
  • Pinch of salt
Preparation
  1. Put all ingredients for base into the blender/food processor and mix few minutes until all combined. It’s good to leave some larger pieces of hazelnuts (or almonds) because this gives a nice crunch.
  2. In every muffin liner (preferably silicone one) put about 2 tbsp of batter and leave on the side until you prepare the chocolate topping.
  3. Put all the ingredients for the topping in a small pan and warm over low heat until melted and combined.
  4. On top of every base put 2-3 tbs of chocolate mixture and put the muffin tin in a freezer for 30 minutes.
  5. After that remove the cups from the tin (very easy to do with a silicone one as they are very flexible so you just pop out the cups) and keep them in a fridge as the chocolate melts fast on a room temperature. Enjoy!
