Prebiotic chocolate bark

serves 4

40mins


This recipe from Eat Yourself Healthy takes less than 5 minutes to make, and packs an extra gut-loving punch. The dried mango and pistachios are full of prebiotics, which are essentially foods that feed your beneficial microbes. The extra virgin olive oil and dark chocolate drizzle add a bonus polyphenol hit (good plant chemicals that also feed our gut microbes).

Ingredients

Base

  • 200g good quality white chocolate
  • 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 50g good quality dark chocolate (70%+)

Method

  1. Melt the white chocolate in the microwave for 40-60 seconds, stirring rapidly every 15 seconds.
  2. Stir in the extra virgin olive oil.
  3. Pour the mixture on to a lined baking tray and thinly spread the chocolate-coated mix and sprinkle on the toppers. Place in the fridge for a few minutes to set.
  4. Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, melt the dark chocolate in the microwave (again stirring every 15 seconds).
