Almond & Avocado Chocolate Cups by Onist Food

This amazing vegan and healthy snack recipe from Onist Food has three of our favourite things: almonds, avocados, and chocolate! The bases of these cups are made from almonds, which are a source of monounsaturated fats. Monounsaturated fats help lower high blood cholesterol, which helps reduce our risk of heart disease. The Onist filling is a source of potassium, which helps us to maintain a normal blood pressure. So this delicious vegan snack is heart-healthy all round and the perfect summery chocolatey treat!

Serves: 2

Ingredients

For the base:
200g ground almonds
30g cacao powder
40g coconut oil
75ml maple syrup

For the filling:
Dark Chocolate, Salted Caramel, Orange and Mint Onist Pots

To Decorate:
Various fruits and chopped nuts, combination suggestions below

• • Dark Chocolate: Strawberry and flaked almond
  • Salted Caramel: Raspberry and pistachio
  • Mint: Mint leaf and cacao nib

Method

For the base, preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius and grease a small tart tray. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl. Press the mix into the tins until to form the cups. Bake for 15 minutes and leave to cool.
