Notes
Make It Personal:
Swap almond meal for sunflower seed meal. To make sunflower seed meal pulse sunflower seed kernels in a food processor to achieve a nut meal texture.
- You can also add a hint of vanilla flavour by adding 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla powder or alcohol/sugar free vanilla extract.
- For a choc-orange flavour just like "jaffas" add zest of 1 orange.
- For a peppermint-chocolate flavour add a peppermint extract.
- You can also substitute liquid stevia for 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup or raw honey. You may need a little extra almond meal so the texture isn't too wet.
