Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons Bob’s Red Mill Pumpkin Seeds
  • 3/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup full fat canned coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • pinch flaky sea salt
  • 3 cups Bob’s Red Mill Flaked Coconut
  • 1/2 cup Bob’s Red Mill Almond Flour
  • 5 ounces dark chocolate

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Toast pumpkin seeds: Spread on a baking sheet and bake for 5-8 minutes until lightly toasted. Set aside.
  3. Make the caramel: In a saucepan, combine maple syrup, coconut milk, and coconut oil. Boil, stirring, for 10 minutes until thickened to ¾ cup. Stir in vanilla and a pinch of salt. Remove from heat.
  4. Prepare macaroon base: In a food processor, combine flaked coconut and almond flour. Add all but 1/4 cup of the caramel sauce. Pulse until finely chopped and the mixture holds together when squeezed.
  5. Form macaroons: Drop 1-tablespoon balls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, packing them tightly. Bake for 8-10 minutes until tops are lightly toasted. Let cool completely.
  6. Melt dark chocolate: Microwave dark chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Stir in remaining chocolate until fully melted.
  7. Dip and decorate: Dip the bottom of each cooled macaroon into melted chocolate. Place on parchment paper. Drizzle with remaining caramel sauce and sprinkle with toasted pumpkin seeds. Chill until chocolate is firm.

Notes

- Toast your coconut flakes lightly before adding them to the mixture for an extra layer of flavor.
- Ensure your macaroons are completely cool before dipping in chocolate to prevent melting.
- Use good quality dark chocolate for the best flavor and a smooth coating.
