The healthy, sticky millionaire’s shortbread the kids will absolutely LOVE

 

Being healthy might make you feel like you can't enjoy a nice square of sticky shortbread or two.

And why would you? Shortbread's full of sugar and chocolate and unhealthy things, right? Not this shortbread, my friends. Not this one. Because this shortbread is made using brazil nut butter and a load of almonds and oats so it's actually quite healthy - and a very decent post-run treat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=48&v=5lt8xJQ9WNk The below recipe from Craft Company will make you 12 servings of stunning shortbread. Or one, depending on how much of it you're planning on eating yourself... in moderation. Obviously. You will need:  75g oats 75g ground almonds 75g dark chocolate 35g coconut oil 1 1/2 tbsp. honey 70g brazil nut butter Method:  1. Put your oats into a blender or food processor and blend them until they’re a similar consistency to flour 2. Add your ground almonds and agave nectar to your ground oats and blend again. Add 1 tbsp of water and continue to mix until clumps start to form 3. Press your mixture into a greaseproof paper-lined baking tin and pop it in the freezer 4. For the next layer, melt 35g of coconut oil and mix it with the brazil nut butter. Spread this mixture on top of your almond and oat layer, before putting the tray back in the freezer 5. Break up your dark chocolate and melt it in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, along with the rest of your coconut oil. Once it’s fully melted, take it off the heat, and leave it to cool for a couple of minutes. Spread your chocolate mixture over your brazil nut layer and put it back into the freezer for about an hour 6. Cut it up and eat it
