Goji Berry & Chocolate Biscuits
Chocolate and goji berries are the perfect combination for taste and goodness.
Lovely with a cup of herbal tea or as on-the-run food. For a lighter version, try the flax and goji without the chocolate dipping.
Preparation time: 20 mins
Serves: Makes about 50 biscuits, depending on size
Ingredients:
2 cup flax seeds
1 1/2 cup goji berries
Chocolate coating:
150g cacao liquor
150g cacao butter
1 tbsp cacao powder
2 tbsp vanilla extract or powder
pinch sea salt
sweetener of your choice to taste – yacon syrup, coconut nectar or coconut sugar
bee pollen
Method:
Soaked the flax seeds and goji berries together for a few hours or overnight in a large bowl
Mix the goji berries a flax seeds thoroughly. Spread on teflex sheets and mark into oblongs
Dehydrate until crisp, turning once. This will take approximately 12 hours
When dehydrated, make the chocolate coating. Melt the liquor and butter in a Pyrex jug in a pan of warm water. Add the vanilla, cacao powder, salt and sweetener
Let it cool so it is a good dipping thickness (roughly blood temperature - test with your finger)
Dip the biscuits in the chocolate and sprinkle with bee pollen. Set on greaseproof paper or the teflex sheets from the dehydrator
