Ingredients
 

  • 1¼ cup (208 grams) fresh raspberries or frozen raspberries, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 cup (180 grams) dark chocolate chips or chocolate chunks
  • 1 teaspoons coconut oil (optional)
  • 1 pinch flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions

  • Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl or shallow dish mash raspberries with a fork until they resemble raspberry jam or raspberry pudding.
    1¼ cup fresh raspberries
  • Mix in chia seeds and let the mixture rest for 5-10 minutes to thicken.
    1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • Drop about 8 small rounds of the raspberry chia mixture onto a lined baking sheet (about 1 tablespoon each). Shape into discs. Freeze for 45-60 minutes until set.
  • When ready, melt chocolate and coconut oil (if using) in microwave safe bowl in 15-second increments until melted. Or use a double boiler or small saucepan over low heat.
    1 cup dark chocolate chips, 1 teaspoons coconut oil
  • Dip frozen raspberry jam bites one at a time in melted chocolate mixture until fully coated, shaking off any excess chocolate. Sprinkle with sea salt (if using) while chocolate is still wet.
    1 pinch flaky sea salt
  • Place back in the freezer for 30 minutes to allow the chocolate coating to harden. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You may need to gently reheat the chocolate after dipping a few raspberry chia bites since the frozen raspberry will cool the chocolate.
  • Before eating, allow to soften at room temperature for 1-2 minutes.
  • Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.
