Ingredients
Dry ingredients
- 1 Cup of Sunflower seeds
- 1/2 cup of Pepitas
- 1/2 cup linseed meal (flax meal)
- 1/2 cup cacao powder
- 1/2 cup of goji berries
- 1/4 cup Maca
Wet ingredients
- 1.5 cup of dates
- 1 cup of prunes
- 1 cup of dried cranberries

- About a 15cm long nug of ginger grated finely
Coconut cream ganache
- 1 Small tin of Organic coconut cream
- 1 and a half cups of raw chocolate or chocolate of your choice
Instructions
Dry Ingredients
- Prepare dry brownie mixture ingredients. These ingredients have all been individually ground in a Thermomix to my desired texture, I suggest you do the same. If you don’t have a thermomix, use a food processor or what ever you can get your hands on to get the job done.
Wet Ingredients
- The wet ingredients should all be ground in together in a food processor or thermomix till combined to a sticky moist mixture.
Brownies
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients in food processor and combine. If the mixture appears too dry then add a little bit of water until your desired texture is reached.
- Add 2 cups of raw chocolate chunks (these go into the mixture very last because you still want them to be chunky) and mix with your hands.
- Squish into brownie tray and top with your ganache. Then freeze or refrigerate.
Coconut cream ganache
- Heat coconut cream in saucepan until you see small bubbles coming up the side but not until boiling.
- Remove saucepan from heat and transfer into heat proof bowl with chocolate and combine with wood spoon, until glossy silky texture.
