Vegan, Gluten/Added Sugar Free Mini Berry Bites

Today’s breakfast: Berry bites with honeydew, green tea & a macadamia nut milk! Yum! 

I mean… Look at these babies😍 

Ingredients:

3 cups fresh or frozen berries – I use frozen blend of blueberries, raspberries & blackberries 

1/3 cup + 1/2 cup Monkfruit sweetener

3 tbsp chia seeds – great fatty acid + omega 3

 3 cups Gluten Free Old Fashioned Oats 

1/8 tsp baking powder 

1/2 cup vegan or regular butter 

1/4 cup large flaked coconut 

Sprinkled coconut flakes to preference – I pretty much cover the whole top of each cupcake cup 

Directions:

1. In a medium sauce pan, cook berries, 1/3 cup Monkfruit Sweetener & chia seeds over medium heat. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring often. 

2.Preheat oven to 350°F. Fill cupcake tin with cups.

3. Combine butter and 1/2 cup Monkfruit Sweetener. Add oat flour oats, and 1/8 tsp baking soda to form a crumbly dough. 

4. Firmly pressed 2/3 of the dough into the cupcake cups, spread the berry Chia filling to the brim of the cup (do not overfill or you’ll have a sticky mess to clean up) and top with coconut flakes.

5. Bake for 30 minutes. Cool before putting in airtight container & refrigerating – I would consume within 5 days. 

If you prefer them warm, put them in the microwave for 15-30 seconds for before eating, just not too long because the berries on top may get too runny! 

6. DEVOUR with a smile on your face 🙂
