3-INGREDIENT PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CANDY

3 INGREDIENT PUMPKIN SEED CHOCOLATE CANDY RECIPE

Just three ingredients are needed in this easy candy recipe that is full of vitamins, minerals, fibre and protein. The pumpkin seeds are sprouted meaning the nutrients are better absorbed by the body.

Pumpkin seeds  are high in iron, zinc, magnesium and protein. They have a strong earthy taste that I don’t find palatable on their own but they do work really well in this candy with sweet dates and bitter dark chocolate.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup / 130g Pumpkin Seeds
• 1 cup / 175g Dates, pitted
• 4.4oz / 125g Chocolate

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Soak the pumpkin seeds in water for an hour or overnight to sprout.
2. Rinse and drain the seeds then blend together with the dates until combined.
3. You may need to scrape the sides if using a food processor/blender or shake if you are using a small bullet blender.
4. Melt the chocolate.
5. Line pan with greaseproof paper then tip in the pumpkin date mixture and using your fingers push the edges to make level.
6. Pour on the chocolate then tilt to spread to the edges.
7. Chill pumpkin seed candy to set then slice.
8. Enjoy pumpkin seed sweets within 3 days as the sprouted seeds last this long and always store in the fridge.
