Vegan Easter Eggs : 3 eggs (9x7cm)

INGREDIENTS

・90g almond flour
・150g desiccated coconut
・3 tbsp maple syrup
・100ml canned coconut milk
・180g dairy free dark chocolate, melted
・1 Mango, pureed

EQUIPMENT

Easter egg shape silicone mould (egg size: 9x7cm)

 
INSTRUCTIONS

1. To make the chocolate egg shell, melt chocolate in a double boiler and pour into Easter egg mould.
Using a spoon, spread the chocolate to the edges of the shell. Keep the leftover chocolate to seal the two halves together.
Place the mould in the freezer for 15 mins to harden the chocolate.

2. To make the filling, in a food processor or in a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, desiccated coconut, maple syrup and coconut milk then mix well. If the mixture is too dry, add extra coconut milk and/or maple syrup of choice.

3. To make the mango puree, place mango in a blender and blend until smooth.

4. Remove the chocolate shells from the freezer and put the filling into each half shell. Create a slight dent in the center of each filling with a spoon.

5. Drop the mango puree to the dents.
Using a piping bag or a spoon, pour the remaining melted chocolate around the edge of each shell.

6. Remove each shell out of the mould and gently press each half together to make full egg shape.
Wipe away any excess chocolate that oozes from the joint.
Pop into the fridge to harden the seal.

7. Crack the shell and enjoy the Easter eggs!
