Jump to recipe

A very popular treat with our social media following, we felt it would be rude not to add the recipe to the cookbook!

Makes about 12

Ingredients

  • 100g/3 1/2 oz crunchy peanut butter
  • 30g/1 oz honey
  • 50g/1 3/4 oz Lucy Bee coconut oil
  • 75g/3/4 oz gluten-free rolled oats
  • 50g/1 3/4 oz milled flaxseed
  • 15g/1/2 oz cacao powder

Method

  1. Put the peanut butter, honey and coconut oil in a bowl and leave at room temperature to soften; this makes them easier to work.

  2. Mix in the oats, flaxseed and cacao powder then roll into bite-sized pieces and place on a baking tray. Freeze until set, then eat them straight from the freezer. You only need a couple to satisfy that sweet craving!

Lucy & the family
A family story, rooted in gluten-free cooking

Lucy’s coeliac diagnosis changed the way the family cooked and ate. Reading labels, choosing ingredients carefully and preparing meals from scratch became second nature.

These recipes reflect our family’s love of natural, minimally processed ingredients and food to enjoy together, including recipes from our two coconut oil cookbooks.
