Once again our favourite holistic nutritionist Natalie Brady has managed to create a recipe that is the perfect balance of heathy and delicious, as well as being super easy and quick to make. You won’t need many of these tasty brownie bites to satisfy your sweet cravings, and as you’ll be getting the nutritional benefits of dark chocolate, almonds and flaxseeds you can treat yourself guilt-free!
These chocolate brownie bites have recently become a favourite in our household. Ever since I first made them a few weeks ago my husband has been asking me to make them weekly. They are so decadent and very moreish. We’ve recently been enjoying 1-2 balls in the evening for a healthy post-dinner treat. What’s great about them is that they are loaded with good-for-you ingredients and they hit that sweet tooth craving if it’s calling. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
