Ingredients
Yield: 12 servings
- 3/4 cup natural creamy peanut butter
- 1/3 cup honey
- 3 cups old-fashioned oats
- 5 ounces dark chocolate, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
Method
Prep the oat mixture. Warm the peanut butter and honey in a small saucepan over medium-a low burner, stirring frequently, until warm but not hot. (You can also do this in the microwave if you prefer.) Add the oats to the peanut butter mixture and stir until combined.
Press into baking cups. Portion the oat mixture evenly into a silicone* or non-stick 12-cup muffin pan (approximately 1/3 cup of the oat mixture per baking cup). Then use a spoon to press the oat mixture firmly into each baking cup.
Tip in the chocolate. Rinse off out the saucepan, then return it to the burner. Tip in the dark chocolate and coconut oil to the saucepan. Warm over medium-a low burner, stirring frequently, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Lift pan from heat. Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of chocolate on top of each oat cup, spreading the chocolate so that it covers the top of each baking cup.*
Freeze. Move the pan to the freezer and chill for at least 1 hour, or until the oat mixture is firm.
Plate Pop out however many oat cups you would like to serve, sprinkle each with a pinch of flaky sea salt, then serve while it is hot and enjoy! Store any remaining oat cups in the freezer until ready to serve.
