Kid-Friendly Homeade Chocolate Eggs

Only 6 wholesome simple baking ingredients make up these Kid-Friendly Homeade Chocolate Eggs. So, you don’t have to go on a hunt just for the ingredients! Making your own homeade Easter chocolates means you can control the ingredients and sugar content! These treats are allergy-friendly being dairy-frere, gluten-free and nut-free! They use:

• Coconut Flour: a gluten-free flour made from only 100% coconuts. This flour is high in fibre and is a pretty good source of protein. Adding it to your diet may contribute to stable blood sugar, good digestion, and heart overall health. It may also support a healthy body weight when eaten with a nutritious, balanced diet.

Easy and Unfussy to Make

To make your chocolate eggs you simply need mix up your flour, sweetener and tahini in a bowl, and form flat eggs shapes, then place in the freezer.

While you’re waiting for your egg centers to freeze you then melt your baker’s chocolate with coconut oil over the stove. If you’ve never done this before, don’t worry it’s super quick and easy!

Simply add your coconut oil and chocolate (chop it first so it melts evenly) to a heat proof bowl and set it over a pot of boiling water. Your bowl should hover over the water not be immersed in it. Simply stir with a spatula until it melts!

Kid-Friendly Homeade Chocolate Eggs

Once your egg centers have been chilled in the freezer for 20 minutes you’ll dip both sides of them in your melted chocolate and place on parchment. Then they go back in the freezer for 5 minutes to chill again.

Take them out and drizzle chocolate on top as decoration then pop back in the freezer until you want to eat them!
