Ingredients

Instructions

  • Prepare fresh almonds and set aside other ingredients such as chocolate, coconut oil, and sea salt.
  • Melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together using the instant pot with hot water and a heatproof bowl. You can use a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring each time until smooth.
  • After preparing your almonds, mix them into the melted chocolate, ensuring you coat generously every single almond. Use a spoon to combine them all and avoid any spot not covered with chocolate. A spoonful of clusters is enough.
  • After forming the almonds, sprinkle with sea salt over the clusters while the chocolate is still soft. Pop the tray into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes and allow the clusters to harden and serve after.

Notes

  • Almonds - experiment with this recipe by using different almond varieties. Most people prefer raw almonds, but roasted or soaked almonds make an excellent nut cluster.
  • Coconut oil - yes, you can usually melt your chocolate without adding anything, but we put coconut oil to achieve a smoother chocolate coating.
  • Melting chocolate - whether using an instant pot or a microwave, melt the chocolate gently, as overheating can lead to a grainy texture, so take it slow and stir frequently for that perfect consistency.
  • Parchment paper - use a baking sheet with parchment paper when forming clusters because it prevents sticking and messing around the kitchen.
