Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unblanched almond flour
- 1/2 cup organic pea protein
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 tbsp almond butter
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp water
- 1/3 cup semi sweet or dark chocolate
Instructions
- In a medium sized bowl, mix together the almond flour and pea protein. Then add in the vanilla, almond butter, maple syrup and water until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into a small dish (4"x 2" or 4"x 4") and use the back of a spoon or spatula to flatten out the mixture until there's an even surface.
- Melt the chocolate in 30 second increments (stirring intermittently) and pour over the top of the mix. Spread it out until you have an even, thin layer of chocolate.
- Place in the fridge for 30 minutes or until the chocolate has hardened. Then remove and cut into 6-8 squares depending on the size of the dish you used.
Notes
- If you want lower sugar, swap our the maple syrup for 2 tbsp of water (additional).
- Not tested with any other flour besides almond flour.
- Store in the fridge for 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 2 months!
