Vegan Maple Black Pepper Hot Chocolate
This daring vegan hot chocolate featuring maple syrup and black pepper spices up your traditional cup with intrigue at every sip - prepare your palate for sweet, savory comfort.
1. Add the chopped dark chocolate and almond milk to a medium saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the chocolate has completely melted and the mixture is smooth and combined.
2. Whisk in the maple syrup and black pepper powder until fully incorporated.
3. Create a slurry by mixing ¼ teaspoon of water to ¼ teaspoon of almond flour.
4. Increase heat and bring the mixture just to a small boil. Add the almond flour slurry gently to the mixture. Once boiling, immediately remove from heat. Once off the heat you can choose to add 1 tbsp of rum or bourbon to the hot chocolate for a delightful, boozy twist.
5. Pour hot chocolate into mugs and top with vegan whipped cream. Dust with additional black pepper powder if desired.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet yet savoury flavours.
