Salty peanut butter quinoa & chia bars with chocolate
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups puffed/popped quinoa
- 1/3 cup chia seeds
- 1 Tbsp hemp seeds
- 1 cup peanut butter (I used a smooth and unsalted & unsweetened one)
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 cup maple syrup ( or agave, rice etc…)
- 150 gr vegan high quality dark chocolate
Method
Step 1: Mix the quinoa, chia, hemp and sea salt in a large bowl.
Step 2: Melt the peanut butter on a water bath and stir in the maple syrup. Now add this to the dry ingredients and mix everything together. I think this works best with your (washed) hands.
Step 3: Line a baking dish with parchment paper and scoop the batter into it. Use your wet hands to press everything together tightly into an even rectangle, roughly 2 cm high.
Step 4: Put in the fridge (or freezer) while melting the dark chocolate on a water bath.
Step 5: Pour the melted chocolate over the cold batter using a spatula to distribute it evenly. Put it back into the fridge until cold and firm. Cut the batter into squares using a sharp knife..
