Pomegranate Carob Bites (Paleo, AIP)
Servings: 9 Bites
A decadent treat that is AIP-compliant and super easy to make. Enjoy for the holidays or any time when you just need that something sweet. Paleo, AIP, Vegan
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Coconut Oil (melted)
- 1/2 cup Carob Powder
- 3 tbsp Maple Syrup (room temperature best)
- pinch Sea Salt
- 1 tsp Vanilla Bean Powder (optional)
- 1/2 cup fresh Pomegranate Arils
Instructions
- Place 9 paper liners in a muffin baking tray. You can alternatively use a silicone mold if you'd rather (no need for paper liners then)
- Mix all of the ingredients together except the pomegranate arils in a small bowl or measuring cup until smooth. Stir in the pomegranate arils.
- Spoon the mixture evenly between the paper liners.
- Refrigerate for at least an hour until hardened. Keep refrigerated. You can also freeze them at this point (let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before eating if frozen). Enjoy!
Notes
If you use cold maple syrup the coconut oil might seize up a bit. This is ok, it's just not as aesthetically pleasing as when the mixture is smoother.
You can also use honey instead of maple syrup.
