Ingredients

  • 4 tbs almond meal
  • 2 tbs cocoa powder
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbs milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tbs maple syrup
  • 2 tbs peanut butter *plus extra to decorate
  • 1 tbs coconut oil

Method

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 160C.
  • Step 2
    Place all the ingredients, except for coconut oil, into a bowl and use a fork or whisk to combine. Whisk for 5 minutes until there are no clumps and the mixture is light and bubbly.
  • Step 3
    Use the coconut oil to lightly grease two small ovenproof bowls. Spoon the mixture equally into each bowl.
  • Step 4
    Spoon 1tbs of peanut butter into the centre of the batter in each bowl.
  • Step 5
    Place the bowls into the oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  • Step 6
    Serve the fondants immediately with fresh berries and extra peanut butter to taste.
Recipe Notes

You can use any milk of choice: almond, coconut or dairy.

Use coconut oil to grease the moulds.

When you’re mixing the ingredients together, whisk for at least 5 minutes to incorporate as much air into the batter as possible. This way, your fondant will be light and fluffy.
