These healthy chocolate cornflakes bites are refined sugar free, gluten free, and vegan! They’re made using simple ingredients like maple syrup, cocoa, cornflakes, and vanilla. They’re a nice twist of the classic rice krispies treats – but made healthier, tastier, and SO good!

A healthier dessert – healthy chocolate cornflakes bites

This is my new favorite gluten free and vegan treat! I absolutely LOVE cornflakes and covered in chocolate with a dark chocolate layer on top? Just the best combination! It’s such an easy no-bake recipe and takes about 10 minutes to make. Just make sure they have enough time in the fridge to set in order to slice them up. 

It’s also a very fun dessert to make, family-friendly, and perfect when you need a healthy chocolate dessert. Perfect to make ahead of time and have them in the fridge for a treat. The flavor is on point, honestly, they have stolen my heart.

How to make healthy chocolate cornflakes bites

Step 1: 

In a small saucepan over medium heat, mix and blend the maple syrup, coconut oil, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt. 

In a large bowl, add the cornflakes and pour the liquid mixture. Mix until the cornflakes are well coated.

Step 2: 

Line an 8×8 inch dish with parchment paper (so it’s easier to lift the treats later on) and pour the coated cornflakes. Press them with the bottom of your rubber spatula or the bottom of a flat measuring cup.

Step 3: 

In a microwave-safe cup, add dark chocolate and coconut oil. Heat it in 20-second intervals until melted. Pour it on top of the coated cornflakes. 

Place in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours. Run a knife over hot water and gently cut into squares.

Gluten Free High Protein Brownies | GF RSF (V DF) Gluten Free High Protein Brownies | GF RSF (V DF) ✨

I’m back!!! - after some months finishing my masters program, starting a new job, and moving twice… and finally I’m back!!! This makes me very happy! Cooking makes me feel very much at home and I had missed it.. a lot! So a big thank YOU for being here 🙆🏼‍♀️😁

As most of you know, black beans are one of my favourite foods. So it was just natural to make these black bean brownies. They are incredibly moist, soft, and fudgy and have become one of my favourites. I’ve tried them several times and I’ve finally found the perfect ingredient ratio. Don’t worry they don’t taste like black beans!

These are gluten free, low in sugar, and high in protein and fiber. Can’t wait for you to try them!
