Base:
1 cup pecans
1/4 cup almonds
1/4 cup golden linseeds
1/2 cup macadamia nuts
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or powder
3 tablespoons maple syrup
pinch sea salt
Caramel:
1/2 cup cashew butter
10 medjool dates, pitted
pinch sea salt
2 tablespoons water
Chocolate:
3/4 cup raw cacao powder
2 tablespoons maple syrup
3/4 cup coconut oil, melted
To make the base combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and blitz intermittently until well combined. Line a loaf tin with baking paper and press the base mixture into the tin. Use the back of a spatula to press the mixture down evenly. Place in the freezer to set. To make the caramel combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and blitz until well combined. Remove the tin from the freezer and spread the caramel mixture evenly over the base. Use the spatula again to ensure an even spread. Transfer to the freezer to set for 2-3 hours. Remove the tin from the freezer and cut into finger sized bars and then return to the freezer. To make the chocolate coating place the coconut oil in a small saucepan and melt over a very low heat. Remove from the heat and whisk in the cacao powder and maple syrup. Take the bars out of the freezer and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Pick up a bar and dip it into the chocolate mix, turning it so that all sides are covered before placing it back on the tray. Repeat this process with all the bars and then return them to the freezer for a few minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Remove from the freezer and place another coat of chocolate on and return to freezer. The bars will need three coats of chocolate. After the third coat has set remove the bars from the freezer and using a sharp knife trim the excess chocolate off to create an even bar shape. Keep them stored in the freezer until ready to be enjoyed!

6 days ago by brownpapernutrition SECOND POUR TEA CHRISTMAS CAKE!!!!! My friends I have managed with huge willpower to stave off sharing this until December 1st so as to not completely bore you with my obsession with Christmas cake, but now the day is here and I am suuuuuuuuuuper bloody excited!!!! First the title - second pour tea - comes from my need to recycle the tea leaves in my tea pot in the morning for something else. You don't have to do this, just make enough tea for the recipe. Next the beauty of this juicy number is that you can legit have a
3 days ago by brownpapernutrition One of my favourite breakfasts - SWEET PEAR AND COCONUT QUINOA, CARAMEL NUT BUTTER AND FRESH PEARS on top for the yummy crunch factor. Kicking the day off with a fibre fuelled, nutrient dense brekky like this one sets you up for the day with good energy, helps to stabilise your appetite throughout thanks to the presence of both soluble and insoluble fibre, plant protein and healthy fats, and is easily digested. The brekky is a cracking way to help feed all the wonderful good bacteria in the gut and keep things moving down there too! If you’d like the
17 hours ago by brownpapernutrition Happiest with haloumi... also super happy when I go out for lunch with friends who actually ask for EXTRA haloumi with their meal. Makes me feel more normal ( @wholefoodhealing thats you hehe). In this bowl I popped cumin and cinnamon roasted veggies with hummus (spread around the bowl - makes it even and also look kind pretty too!), some zucchini ribbons, tomatoes, avocado, kraut, herbs and chilli flakes. The veggies and haloumi were warm so it was a yummy warm salad variation which I love as a change from cold and raw. Didn't need extra dressing because the olive oil,
2 days ago by brownpapernutrition This year I’ve had this absolutely wonderful human @wholefoodhealing in my life through our work together and I couldn’t feel more grateful or more aligned with someone in this space. She’s incredibly intelligent, highly motivated, compassionate and kind, with a similar zero bs approach to nutrition, health, parenting and life. We met studying nutrition almost 9/10 years ago (how on earth was it that long?!?!) and I remember thinking what a bright light she was st the time too. This year we created a series of successful, educational workshops with more to come in 2020 and we are in the
6 days ago by brownpapernutrition CAJUN TOFU SCRAMBLE BOWL WITH SWEET POTATO HASH... Thought I would miss soft cheese, mussels and prawns the most during pregnancy, turns out I miss sprouts and juicy rockmelon more! Go figure?!?!?!?! Maybe because over the past couple of years we've transitioned our diet so much more toward plants that the shellfish and cheese factor just isn't much a thing anymore, but humble ingredients that I probably didn't recognise were as present as they were are the ones I am hanging to be able to throw into meals again! This is a delicious scrambled cajun tofu bowl with sweet potato,
