Ingredients
75 g ground almonds
40 g oat flour
20 g cocoa powder
30 g coconut sugar
20 g maple syrup
Pinch sea salt
20 g melted coconut oil
15–30 g water or maple syrup as needed
100 g chocolate of your choice
20 g deodorized coconut oil
150 g fresh cherries, pitted and halved
Instructions
- In a food processor, combine ground almonds, oat flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, sea salt, and maple syrup.
- Process until well combined.
- Add water or extra maple syrup 1 tsp at a time until dough comes together.
- Line a baking tin with cling film and press the dough evenly into the tin using the back of a spoon.
- Leave at room temperature while preparing the chocolate topping.
- Melt chocolate and coconut oil together over low heat or in the microwave.
- Pour the chocolate over the cookie dough and swirl to cover the surface evenly.
- Arrange the halved cherries on top as desired.
- Chill in the fridge or freezer until firm, about 15–20 minutes.
- Slice as desired and store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
Use cocoa butter instead of coconut oil for a firmer base that’s stable at room temperature.
Try different chocolate types like dark, milk, or white chocolate.
Add a sprinkle of sea salt or chopped nuts on top for extra texture.
Replace cherries with dried fruits or other fresh berries.
Drizzle with melted peanut butter or almond butter for a richer flavor.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
