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!

1 week ago by brownpapernutrition I wasn’t going to post this because I’ve never been great with a selfie and my ego says “eeeek Jacq don’t do that!” any time I’ve considered it but you know what? - This is actually the STRONGEST AND FITTEST I’ve felt in YEARS! ☺️It’s ridiculous that so often we don’t acknowledge our achievements isn’t it? That our ego will say “do more, be more, more more more!!!!” but you MUST PAUSE and celebrate your goals otherwise what is actually the point?!?!?!

4 days ago by brownpapernutrition Serving up my plant based, MEXI MUSHROOM BEAN CHILLI with baked potatoes yeaaaa babyyyyyyyyyy.... You know I used to avoid the basic tater in my diet (ludicrous I know!), but then I decided and maybe with the influence of my beautiful boys in the family, that the humble baked potato also deserves its place on the table and so he makes his way on there these days too.
