You want me to do what...EAT MORE FAT?!
You bet! You can read about all the reasons why in my last blog post.
Plus here is the easiest, most delicious appetite- and sweet tooth-curbing recipe you can whip up -- all for the sake of hormonal harmony!
Recipe
Ingredients:
½ cup almond or other nut butter, no sugar-added (if nut-sensitive, use sesame tahini or sunflower seed butter)
½ cup virgin coconut oil
3 Tbs raw, unprocessed cacao powder
stevia, xylitol or monk fruit to sweeten to taste
silicone candy mould or mini-muffin pan
Optional add-ins:
splash of real vanilla extract or vanilla powder
cinnamon or ginger
pinch of Himalayan pink salt or Celtic grey salt
How to prepare:
In a large skillet melt coconut oil and nut butter over low heat.
Stir in cacao powder and desired sweetener.
Remove from heat and add vanilla (+ other add-ins), if using.
You may want to pour mixture into a “spouted” cup to make pouring easier.
Pour mixture into silicone candy molds or mini-muffin pan (about 1 Tb of mixture)
Put in freezer or fridge until set.
Remove from molds and store in the fridge in an airtight container.
Be mindful that each fat bomb is considered a full serving of fat - great for curbing the appetite, satisfying a sweet tooth and supporting your hormones with the building blocks they need!
