4-Ingredient Sunflower Seed Chocolate Bites
If you're looking for an easy crunchy snack that's also good for you, try these 4-ingredient sunflower seed chocolate bites. All you need is sunflower seeds, maple syrup, salt and dark chocolate!
Ingredients
- 200g sunflower seeds
- Pinch of salt
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 60g Dark chocolate
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan/350F.
- Add the sunflower seeds to a bowl along with a pinch of salt and the maple syrup. Mix until everything is evenly distributed.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Press some of the mixture in a small round cookie cutter, then remove slowly to shape into flat discs*.
- Alternatively you can spoon some of the mixture straight onto the lined baking sheet to make clusters instead.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes (depending on how big/small you make them), or until golden brown.
- Allow to cool completely to firm up (they may break apart if you attempt to move them whilst still warm).
- Once cooled, dip the bottom of the sunflower seed bites into melted dark chocolate. Or you can drizzle some chocolate on top instead.
Notes
* I used a small round cookie cutter to shape them and ended up with 14 bites. You can use any size cookie cutter depending on how many you want/how big you would like them to be. Just bear in mind that the nutritional breakdown is based on 14 servings.
