Ingredients
Trail mix
230 g raw almonds
70 g sunflower seeds
70 g pumpkin seeds
70g sultanas or currants
25 g coconut flakes
25g dried goji berries
70 g macadamia nuts, chopped
45 g dried apricots, chopped
45g dried figs, chopped
Chocolate bars
100 g raw cacao butter, cut into pieces (1-2 cm)
30 g raw cacao powder, to taste
30g honey
1 tsp natural vanilla extract
⅛ tsp fine sea salt
I swapped out the apricots and the figs for a mixture of nuts and Buckinis (roasted buckwheat) just to cut down on the sugars a little
Preparation
Trail mix
Preheat oven to 150°C. Line a baking tray (30 x 40 cm) with baking paper and set aside.
Place almonds into mixing bowl and chop 7 sec/speed 5. Transfer onto prepared baking tray.
Add pumpkin and sunflower seeds to baking tray with almonds and bake for 15-20 minutes (150°C) or until golden. Allow mixture to cool on tray. Meanwhile, continue with recipe.
Mix sultanas, apricots, figs, coconut flakes, macadamias and goji berries
Add cooled almonds and seeds and stir to combine
Chocolate bars
Line a rectangular slice tin (20 x 30 cm) with baking paper.
Place cacao butter into mixing bowl of Thermomix*and chop 20 sec/speed 8, then melt 5 min/37°C/speed 2.
Scrape down sides of mixing bowl with spatula and melt 6 min/37°C/speed 2.
Add cacao powder, honey, vanilla and salt and blend 1 min/speed 8.
Add 400 g of trail mix and combine 10 sec/reverse/speed 2. Transfer into prepared tin and spread evenly. Press mixture down firmly. Place into freezer to set for 30 minutes or until firm, making sure tin is level so bar sets evenly.
Remove from freezer and cut into lengths (2 cm wide), then cut each bar into thirds (makes approx. 18 bars in total). Serve immediately or wrap bars in baking paper, place into a sealable container and store in freezer until ready to serve
Pop the leftover trail mix in a jar and enjoy as a healthy snack.
*This can easily be made using a double boiler on a stove top should you not have a Thermomix
Healthy wishes always
