Ingredients:
- 200g flaked almonds
- 5 tbsp desiccated coconut
- 6 tbsp honey/maple
- 3 tbsp almond butter
- Pinch sea salt
Method:
Preheat oven to 390°F/200°C
Sprinkle out the faked almonds on a lined baking tray and toast for 8 minutes until golden in color (toss intermittently for even results) -after the first 3 minutes, add in the desiccated coconut to toast also until browned.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl combine the toasted coconut and almond with sea salt.
In a small saucepan over medium heat add the almond butter and honey, stirring to combine until fully melted.
Bring the mix to a gentle boil, continuing to stir for 2-3 minutes. The mix will begin to lift from the bottom of the pan and become really thick like a heavy caramel - once this happens remove and poor over the coconut and almonds.
Working quickly, stir the mix into the dry ingredients covering it completely.
Grab sections and mold into a thick cookie shape.
Place on a tray and set to the freezer to set for 20-30 minutes.
Garnish with a drizzle and dip of dark chocolate.
