Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 100 g peanuts
  • 200 g oat flakes
  • 30 g pumpkin seeds
  • 30 g sunflower seeds
  • 40 g almonds
  • 1 tbsp flaxseeds
  • 2 tbsp honey or a little more
  • 50 g dark chocolate without sugar
  • Pinch of salt flakes

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the peanuts, oat flakes, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, almonds, and flaxseeds.
  2. Sweeten with Honey: Drizzle the honey over the dry ingredients and stir to coat everything evenly. You may add a little extra honey depending on how sweet you want your dessert.
  3. Melt the Chocolate: Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and melt it either in the microwave or using a double boiler. Stir the melted chocolate until smooth.
  4. Combine Everything: Pour the melted chocolate over the oat and nut mixture. Stir everything together thoroughly to ensure it is all well-coated.
  5. Add Salt: Sprinkle a pinch of salt flakes over the mixture, enhancing the flavors and balancing the sweetness.
  6. Chill and Set: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the mixture evenly over it. Refrigerate for about an hour or until the dessert firms up and becomes easier to break into pieces.
  7. Serve: Once set, break the mixture into bite-sized pieces and enjoy your homemade, energy-boosting snack.

Notes

  • Storage: Store the Super-Energy Dessert in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
  • Substitutes: You can substitute the nuts or seeds with other options depending on your preferences. For example, walnuts or cashews can replace almonds, and chia seeds can replace flaxseeds.
  • Vegan Option: Use maple syrup or agave nectar instead of honey for a vegan-friendly version.
  • Sweetness Level: Adjust the honey amount based on how sweet you like your desserts. If you prefer it less sweet, reduce the honey or even eliminate it altogether.
