Craving peanut butter AND chocolate?

The hours between lunch and dinner time are long—particularly when you’re trying not to devour a whole chocolate bar or packet of biscuits. Trust us, we’ve been there. It feels like a marathon. But unlike a marathon, it doesn’t get easier after the first two hours. If anything, it gets harder.
After years of 3 pm gorges, we’ve learnt a thing or two about making it through the afternoon and if we can share one piece of advice, it’s this: arm yourself with healthy snacks that aren’t boring.
This week, we made a batch of Jessica Sepel’s chocolate chip cookies. They only took 15 minutes to make and go perfectly with a tea.

Makes: 10-12

Ingredients

1/2 cup coconut flour
2 tbsp chia seeds
1/3 cup raw cashews or almonds
2 heaped tbsp. peanut butter
2-3 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp sea salt
1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
1/4 cup warm water
1/4 cup dark chocolate/dairy-free chocolate, chopped

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180°.
  2. Add all ingredients to a food processor, except for the chopped chocolate, and process until it comes together—the mixture should be sticky enough to hold its shape when pressed. If it’s too dry, add a touch more water.
  3. Add chopped chocolate and stir through.
  4. Spoon 1 tbsp of mixture onto a lined baking tray and shape into a cookie.
  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden around the edges.
