Recipe Tips
Coconut is technically a fruit. While most allergists do not consider it a tree nut, if you are nut allergic, ask your doctor if coconut is safe for you.
Instructions
- Put 2 tablespoons allergy-friendly semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips in a small bowl and heat in microwave on High.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons sunflower seed butter and 1 teaspoon coconut oil and microwave on High for 15 seconds. Whisk until smooth.
- Hold strawberry by the stem and dip in chocolate mixture. Place on parchment paper in freezer to firm up.
- Repeat with more strawberries, thick banana slices or fully dunk raspberries or blueberries.
