For a healthier Easter treat, whip up a batch of these impressive (yet easy) vegan Bounty Bunnies, worthy of adults and children alike.
Recipe by Maria Devine (@mimismacros)
If you love coconut like us, you'll totally love this vegan take on the classic bounty bar. Soft and creamy in the centre, and smothered in a rich, chocolatey coating - it's hard to believe these Bounty Bunnies deliver nutritional benefits too. With 5g of protein and only 92 calories each, they're the perfect solution if you want to indulge this Easter, without overdoing it with crazy amounts of refined sugar or calories.
As well as adding a boost of plant-based protein, our Chocolate Vegan Protein Blend creates an irresistibly indulgent flavour, along with our Organic Cacao Powder and Chocolate FlavDrops. These tasty ingredients are low-sugar, completely dairy free, and will show you that vegans don't have to compromise on taste when it comes to chocolate (contrary to popular opinion!).
Not just for Easter, this recipe is one you'll return to time and time again - simply adapt the shapes based on the occasion for a quick and easy treat!
