Method

Muffins

  • Preheat oven to 180°c,  grease mini muffin trays
  • Put boiling water and coffee in a cup and mix together
  • Add that, and all other ingredients together and mix well.
  • Spoon mixture in to mini muffin trays and bake for 10-12 minutes (depending on oven)

Topping

  • Take pits out from dates and chop dates into quite small bits and add to boiling water
  • Leave for half hour until dates are soft
  • Add dates and water to saucepan and add maple syrup and vanilla
  • Cook on medium heat til dates break down a bit more, and then add rice malt syrup, turn down to simmer and squash dates so they make a smooth paste
  • Add the chocolate squares
  • When choc is melted take off heat.
  • Spoon a bit of sauce on to muffin and enjoy!
  • I added a strawberry on top of mine, but coconut or any berries/slice of banana is delicious too!
