Better than Hot Cocoa

12/14/2022

0 Comments

 
​I have a hot “cocoa” drink for you ​that tastes great without being overloaded with sugar and other not-so-good-for-you ingredients.

​This hot “chocolate​ ​drink is​ 100% vegan (if you use agave or maple syrup) that uses carob powder instead of chocolate.

​I used Carob instead of chocolate chips​ in this recipe. Carob has been used for thousands of years as a sweetener, substitute for chocolate, and even folk remedies​ because of its nutritional benefits.​

​Carob is packed with fibre and contains a wide variety of vitamins (Bs, E, and K) and minerals, including zinc, potassium, and magnesium.
​

​You will enjoy the comforting, warming, and deliciousness of this recipe.


Picture
(Makes 1 serving)

  • 1 cup (240 ml) creamy oat milk
  • 1 Tbsp carob powder
  • 1 Tbsp honey or maple or agave syrup
  • (optional) ½ tsp vanilla extract

Place all the ingredients in a small pan over medium heat. Whisk together well to get rid of any lumps and heat until it reaches your desired temperature. 
​
Pour into a mug and enjoy!
