Ingredients:

  • 1 liter of almond milk

  • 1 scoop of MJ chocolate protein

  • 1 scoop of MJ vanilla protein

  • 1 scoop of Choctura cocoa

  • Argan oil, to taste! (Jacynthe puts a lot)

Chocolate spread

Serving: 500 ml (2 cups)  

 

Ingredients:   

  • 500 ml (2 cups) of sunflower or pumpkin seeds

  • 60 ml (1/4 cup) of cocoa

  • 160 ml (2/3 cup) of maple syrup

  • 60 ml (1/4 cup) of olive oil*

  • 125 ml (1/2 cup of almond milk) *

  • 1 pinch of salt

  • 1 ml (1/4 tsp of vanilla extract)

Method:

  • Mix all the ingredients in a blender until a smooth paste is obtained.

  • Note: keeps for about a week in the fridge and freezes wonderfully.  

*It is possible to replace the oil or almond milk with unsweetened applesauce.

You can also add fermented rice protein to the mixture.

 

 

Jo’s Double-Choco Muffins

Serving: 7 muffins

 

First mix

Ingredients:

  • 100 g of gluten-free L’Angélique pastry flour

  • 30 g MJ rice protein

  • 10 g MJ chocolate protein

  •   50 g Choctura cocoa

  •   9 g baking powder

  •   ½ g baking soda

  •    ½ g salt

Second mix

Ingredients:

  • 130 g monk fruit

  • 2 vegan eggs*

  • 1 tablespoon of vanilla

Other ingredients:

  • 130 g vegan buttermilk**

  • 80 g coconut oil

  • 120 g chocolate chips 

Method:

  • Place the rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

  • Lining the muffin tins with paper or silicone liners.

  • Combine all the dry ingredients.

  • Mix the eggs, monk fruit, and vanilla. Incorporate into the dry ingredient mixture, then add the oil, buttermilk, and chocolate chips, without overmixing, just enough to make it uniform.

  • Cook for about 16 minutes. 

Vegan substitutes for egg and buttermilk 

*For each egg: It is possible to substitute a whole egg with a "flax" or "chia" egg. Simply add 1 tablespoon of chia or flax seeds and 3 tablespoons of water. Wait for the mixture to gel, which indicates that it is ready to be used.

** For the plant-based buttermilk: add 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice, then fill the cup with the required amount of plant-based milk. Mix and let it rest for 10 minutes before using! Or, like Jacynthe, simply add 1 teaspoon of tonic juice to the plant-based milk.
