Ingredients:
- 140g strawberries (approximately 1 cup), finely chopped or pureed
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
Chocolate Coating:
- 80g dark chocolate
- 1 tsp coconut oil
Instructions:
- Strawberry Chia Mix:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped strawberries with chia seeds.
- Give it a good stir until the chia seeds are uniformly distributed.
- Transfer this mixture into a silicone mold or on a tray lined with parchment paper, distributing it evenly.
- Place in the freezer for about 1 hour or until the mixture has set and hardened.
- Preparing the Chocolate Coating:
- In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and coconut oil.
- Melt them together using a double boiler method, ensuring that the water in the pot below doesnβt touch the base of the bowl. Alternatively, you can also melt them in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until fully melted.
- Coating & Setting:
- Once the strawberry-chia mixture is set, take it out of the freezer.
- Cut or break them into bite-sized pieces if youβve spread them on a tray.
- Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each strawberry-chia bite into the melted chocolate, ensuring all sides are coated.
- Place the chocolate-coated bites on a tray lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate shell has hardened.
