Ingredients

Chocolate Shell

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Protein Filling

  • 1/2 cup almond butter or cashew butter
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla or unflavoured protein powder
  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch sea salt
  • 1-2 teaspoons almond milk (if needed)

Raspberry Chia Jam

  • 1 cup raspberries (fresh or thawed frozen)
  • 1 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

  • Line a mini muffin tray with 10-12 paper liners.
    Make the chia jam.
    Mash raspberries in a bowl, stir in chia seeds and maple syrup if using. Let sit for 10–15 minutes to thicken.
    Prepare the chocolate shell.
    Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in small dish and microwave with 20 second bursts stirring between each one until melted and smooth.
    Or use double boiler method - (pot of boiling water with a bowl resting on top) melt the chocolate chips and the coconut oil together.
    Create the base layer.
    Add a small amount of melted chocolate to each muffin cavity, coating the base and slightly up the sides.
    Freeze for 10 minutes.
    Make the protein filling.
    Mix almond butter, protein powder, maple syrup, vanilla and salt until smooth. Add a splash of almond milk (or any other milk) if needed to soften.
    Layer the cups.
    Add a small spoon of protein filling to each chocolate base, followed by a spoon of raspberry chia jam.
    Cover each cup with remaining melted chocolate.
    Refrigerate or freeze until fully set.
    Remove from liners to serve.
    Blended Bites Tips💡
    Use freeze-dried raspberries for a more intense flavour in the jam.
    Add a whole raspberry in the centre for texture.
    Sprinkle a little sea salt on top for contrast.
    Keep them stored in the freezer for the perfect firm bite.
    Swap raspberries for strawberries or cherries if preferred.
