Do you want to bring a little tropical vacation feeling into your kitchen this year? Then you absolutely must try our Kumaio® Chai Berry Bites!
This recipe is super easy, consists of only a few ingredients, and gets an exotic twist from our Kumaio® products that tastes like summer, sun, and vacation even on cold winter days. The perfect getaway for you!
What you need for the Chai Berry Bites:
-
Approx. 3-4 tbsp Kumaio® Organic Coconut Milk (60% coconut content)
-
A dash of Kumaio® Chai Syrup (depending on desired sweetness and spice)
Further ingredients:
-
approx. 200g mixed berries (e.g. raspberries and blueberries – even frozen and thawed)
-
2 tbsp chia seeds
-
approx. 100g dark chocolate for melting
-
Muffin cups (preferably paper or silicone)
Step 1: The exotic coconut base
Put the entire jar of our Kumaio® Organic Coconut Chips Natural into a blender and process until they have a fine, floury consistency. Place the ground coconut chips in a bowl and add the Kumaio® Organic Coconut Milk by the tablespoon. Mix everything well until a sticky mass forms that can be easily shaped.
Step 2: Forming the base Line a muffin tin with paper cups. Place about one tablespoon of the coconut mixture into each cup and press it down with the back of a spoon to form a firm base.
Step 3: The fruity chai filling In a separate bowl, mix the berries with the chia seeds. The absolute highlight comes now: refine the berry mixture with our Kumaio® Chai Syrup. This gives the fruits a wonderful, warming spice note. Stir everything well until the chia seeds begin to lightly bind the liquid.
Step 4: Layer and top Distribute the fruity chai-berry mixture evenly over the prepared coconut bases in the muffin cups. Melt the dark chocolate (in a double boiler or briefly in the microwave) and finally add a generous dollop of the liquid chocolate as a lid to the bites.
Step 5: Chill & Enjoy Place the Chai Berry Bites in the freezer for at least 1-2 hours so that the chocolate can set and the chia-berry mixture can soak through well. For decoration, you can place a single Kumaio® coconut chip on the still soft chocolate before chilling. Allow the Berry Bites to thaw for about 20-30 minutes before eating.
Tip: The bites can be stored wonderfully in the freezer and are the perfect, small snack for afternoon coffee!
