INGREDIENTS:

1 cup vanilla vegan protein

2 cups of defrosted frozen berries (don't drain them as the juice works really well in this)

1/2 cup almond meal

1/2 cup cashew butter

1/4 cup melted coconut oil

1 vanilla bean pod

1/2 cup freeze dried raspberries


HOW:

  • Blend the berries in a bullet blender until smooth. Add the cashew butter, coconut oil and the inside seeds of your vanilla bean and blend again. Pour contents into a medium mixing bowl.
  • Add almond meal and protein powder to mix in the bowl and stir through.
  • Take half of the freeze dried raspberries and gently fold through your mix, this looks a lot better chunky and works as little flavor explosions in the slice. Set mix aside.
  • Line a medium sized brownie baking tray with waxed paper
  • Add mix to the tray, spread about 1 inch thick.
  • Sprinkle the remaining freeze dried raspberries on top, place in the freezer for 20mins
  • Once hard, cut into squares 2x2 inches and these bad boys are ready to rock!
  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer, I kinda dig the frozen vibes on a super hot day but either option is pretty god damn delicious.
