-
¼ cup chocolate powder
- 3 tbsp 100% pure maple syrup
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup almond butter or nut butter of choice
- 1 organic egg
- 1 banana, sliced

Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

- In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower puree, almond flour, salt, and cinnamon and stir until combined.
- In a separate small bowl, mix together Food Matters Superfood Chocolate, maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla. Set aside 2 tbsp of this chocolate mixture to drizzle on top at the end.
- Add 2 tbsp of almond butter and the egg to the chocolate mixture in the bowl, mix well.
- Fold the chocolate mixture into the large bowl with the cauliflower purée and dry ingredients. Mix until well combined.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pour the mixture into the center of the parchment paper and use a spoon to spread the mixture out evenly into a circle that is about 1/4″ thick.
- Bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Top with 1/4 cup of almond butter, sliced banana, shredded coconut, berries and drizzle with chocolate mixture from earlier.
