Healthy Twix Bites
These healthy Twix bites are my take on the original much loved treat. Made with just a handful of better-for-you ingredients and they're not bake, so you don't even need to turn on your oven!
Ingredients
For the base
- 70g oat flour
- 50g ground almonds
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 3 tbsp coconut oil
For the caramel
- 80ml tahini
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- pinch of salt
For the chocolate shell
- 150g dark chocolate
Instructions
- Mix the oat flour, ground almonds and salt in a bowl, then pour in the maple syrup and melted coconut oil. Mix to form a dough.
- Divide between 9 mini cupcake bases and press down with a small spoon (I use a measuring teaspoon).
- Mix the tahini, maple syrup and salt in another bowl and pour over the bases. Freeze until completely set.
- Once frozen, gently remove from the moulds and dip in melted dark chocolate. Alternatively you can place on a fork and drizzle melted chocolate on top with a spoon.
- Refrigerate until set and enjoy!
Notes
I used runny tahini to create a drippy caramel. Depending on the consistency of your tahini the caramel layer may be thicker.
The number of bites this recipe makes will depend on the size of your moulds. You may end up with more or fewer bites.
Nut butter can be used instead of tahini if you prefer.
Make sure the caramel layer has fully set in the freezer before removing.
Store in the fridge in an air-tight container for up to 3 days.
