Ingredients
  • coconut oil, for greasing the dish
  • 150g desiccated coconut (make sure you get unsulphured, as coconut often has preservative 220 added)
  • 30-60g maple syrup (50g is our 'sweet spot')
  • 50g [url:4]sultanas

  • 30g goji berries (or, truly decadent, skip the sultanas and up it to 80g goji berries)
  • 50g cacao nibs
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 190 degrees Celsius and grease a 9 inch or 20cm round pie dish (I like to use coconut oil in keeping with the coconutiness of this recipe).
  2. Place all ingredients in your Thermomix bowl and mix for 10 seconds on reverse, speed 3.
  3. Empty the mix into your pie dish and squoosh it down with the palm of your hand - try to keep it at an even height throughout the dish.
  4. Bake for 25-30mins until the edges are browned and the top if slightly firm to the touch.
  5. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before cutting into squares, leaving it in the tin until completely cooled.
Notes
Stored in a sealed container in the fridge, these will last at least through the week.
