Prep Time10 minutes
Author: Ana Coito, Ph.D.

Ingredients

  • 100 g extra-virgin coconut oil (cold-pressed)
  • 50 g unprocessed raw honey*
  • 15 g carob powder
  • 100 g almonds

Instructions

  • Heat a little bit of water and place a bowl inside with the coconut oil until this is melted.
  • Remove the bowl from the heat and add the honey and carob. Mix well.
  • Add the almonds to the mixture and mix well.
  • Place the mixture in a rectangular glass box and put it in the fridge for about 1h to solidify.
  • Cut it in little squared/rectangular pieces. Place it again in the fridge until solid or until you want to serve it.

Notes

* Pay attention to the honey you buy as not all kinds of honey are necessarily good. In supermarkets, we find many that were heated up (or pasteurized) and some that are even mixed with sugar. I recommend you buy a good quality honey that is organic and unprocessed. Also, check the ingredient list just to be sure there is no added sugar or syrup. This is really important, otherwise, the honey that you will use can end up being as detrimental as consuming sugar.
