Description
A delicious sweet treat made with real, nutritious foods
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup raw macadamia nuts
- 2 cups pressure cooked adzuki beans (drained)
- 2 tablespoons hemp seeds
- 1 tablespoon flax seeds
- 1 tablespoon psyllium husk flakes
- 1/2 tablespoon yacon syrup (or more if you like it sweet)
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 5 tablespoons chestnut flour
- 2 oz dark chocolate, chopped (or you can use chocolate chips), divided
- 1/4 tsp salt for the batter
- Sea salt flakes for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Prepare an 8×8 inch (or something similar) baking pan with parchment paper.
- Chop the macadamia nuts in a food processor, take them out.
- In the same food processor add the beans and salt and process until it becomes a paste.
- Grind the hemp seeds and flaxseed in a coffee grinder or Nutribullet with a milling blade (or use already ground) and add them to the food processor. Add the psyllium husk flakes, yacon syrup and olive oil and process until all creamy.
- Add the chestnut flour and process until all mixed together.
- Transfer the content to a mixing bowl, add the macadamia nuts and the 1.2oz chopped chocolate and fold everything in with a spatula. Transfer the batter to the baking pan and level. Sprinkle with the remaining chocolate.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, until no longer soft to touch. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes. Let it cool completely before cutting. Store in the refrigerator or freeze.
Notes
I prefer eating them cold, from the fridge. Texture and taste are the best, in my opinion.
