Picnic bites
I made these to curb my post-dinner sweet tooth, without having to over eat, and it worked WONDERS.
These are full of fibre too, because of the raisins, nuts, and the puffed rice I used, but change up the quantities & ingredients, they’re there to play around with.
Recipe, makes 15-20 bites;
80g chocolate
2 tbsp cocoa butter or smooth nut butter
2 tbsp syrup
1 1/2 cups mixed puffed cereal, nuts + dried fruit
Big sprinkle Maldon salt
Method
Melt your chocolate, then stir through your nut butter/ cocoa butter and syrup, and microwave for another 30 seconds.
Mix through your mixed puffed grains, nuts/ dried fruits and stir until everything is coated, then add your sprinkle of salt.
Add everything to a small lined baking tray, and firmly press down with the back of a spoon so none of the mixture is raised.
Once pressed down, refrigerate for at least 2 hours, then remove from the baking tray and slice into cubes.
Keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
Notes + Variations:
All the nuts, dried fruit & the grain can be switched around, and so can the chocolate, so play around, use up what you have, and decide what you like best.
