Ingredients
 

Base Ingredients:

  • 1 cup almond flour ground almonds (100g)
  • ½ cup organic unflavoured pea protein (55g)
  • ½ cup almond butter (120g)
  • 4 tbsp maple syrup
  • 4-5 tbsp almond milk

Topping:

  • 125 g dark chocolate 70% cocoa solids

Instructions
 

  • Add all the base ingredients to a bowl and combine until soft. It should hold together well and not be crumbly. If it seems crumbly, add a little more milk and stir again.
  • Separate into 12 pieces and press down firmly into a cupcake tray or cases.
  • Melt the dark chocolate in a bowl over a pan of hot water. Pour a spoonful over each cup. Refrigerate to harden.

Notes

  • You can also have these without the chocolate, if preferred.
  • I use a vegan, 70% cocoa solids dark chocolate.
