Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Coconut Oil (melted)
  • 1/2 cup Carob Powder
  • 3 tbsp Maple Syrup (room temperature best)
  • pinch Sea Salt
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Bean Powder (optional)
  • 1/2 cup fresh Pomegranate Arils

Instructions
 

  • Place 9 paper liners in a muffin baking tray. You can alternatively use a silicone mold if you'd rather (no need for paper liners then)
  • Mix all of the ingredients together except the pomegranate arils in a small bowl or measuring cup until smooth. Stir in the pomegranate arils.
  • Spoon the mixture evenly between the paper liners.
  • Refrigerate for at least an hour until hardened. Keep refrigerated. You can also freeze them at this point (let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before eating if frozen). Enjoy!

Notes

If you use cold maple syrup the coconut oil might seize up a bit. This is ok, it's just not as aesthetically pleasing as when the mixture is smoother.
You can also use honey instead of maple syrup.
