Recipe
Ingredients
- ½ cup coconut butter (see note below)
- ½ cup rice-malt syrup, honey or maple syrup
- ½ tsp vanilla powder, extract or essence
- 3 cups popcorn, plain or salted
- Pinch sea salt (optional)
- Extra:
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 30g goji berries
- 30g sunflower seeds, pepitas or sesame seeds (raw, toasted or dehydrated
- 30g flaked almonds or slivered or chopped nuts (raw, toasted or dehydrated)
- Freeze-dried raspberry fruit sprinkles (as pictured)
Method
- Stand coconut butter jar in hot water to soften.
- Once soft enough to stir easily with a spoon, add to bowl with choice of sweetener and vanilla.
- Mix with metal spoon until combined and creamy.
- Add popcorn (and any extras) and fold thorough caramel. If caramel is too thick to work through popcorn, stand mixing bowl in hot water for a few mins.
- Divide between 18 mini patty pans. Optionally, top with extras.
- Place in freezer for 30 mins or so to set.
- Store in airtight container in freezer. The caramel will soften a little if exposed to heat, but it holds up a lot better than coconut oil-based raw treats.
