• Quarter the cleaned brussel sprouts. In a large non-stick pan, heat 2 tbsp of oil over a high heat. When hot, add the sprouts and 1⁄4 tsp salt. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 2-3 minutes stirring occasionally. Add the veg stock and cover with a tight lid for 3-5 minutes to cook the sprouts a little faster. Add more water if they begin to stick.
• Roughly chop the cooked chestnuts.
• Remove the lid and add the chestnuts and cook for 2 minutes. Add the cranberry sauce, mixing well. Continue cooking to heat through for 3 minutes, add the remaining salt and serve immediately with your Christmas dinner.

Prepare the pastry:

• Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto a clean surface. Cut the sheet in half lengthwise.

Add the pesto:

• Spread your pesto of choice evenly over one half of the pastry. Use the Lovely Basil, Spicy Red Pepper, or Sundried Tomato Pesto—or mix and match for variety!

Shape the stars:

• Place the other half of the pastry on top to sandwich the pesto. Using a star-shaped cookie cutter, cut out star shapes from the layered pastry.

Form the wreath:

• On a fresh sheet of baking parchment, mark out a large circle (using a bowl or plate as a guide). Arrange the pastry stars along the circle, slightly overlapping, to form a wreath shape.

Brush and bake:

• Lightly brush the pastry stars with oat milk to ensure a golden finish. Transfer the wreath (on the parchment) to a baking tray.

Bake:

• Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and bake the wreath for 15–20 minutes, or until golden and puffed.

Serve:

• Let the wreath cool slightly before serving. This beautiful and flavorful centerpiece is perfect for sharing! Serve alongside extra pesto for dipping!

Prepare the dates and shape the tree:

• Remove the stones from 250g (8.8 oz) of medjool dates. Open them out and arrange them on a sheet of baking parchment in the shape of a Christmas tree. Fold the parchment around the dates, leaving extra room, and seal the edges. Use a rolling pin or mug to press down firmly, compacting the dates so they hold their shape when handled and so you have a firm solid base.
• Add the peanut butter layer:
• Spoon 100g (3.5 oz) of crunchy peanut butter over the flattened dates, spreading it evenly to cover the entire tree shape. Place the tree in the freezer to set for 20 minutes.

Melt and drizzle the chocolate:

• Melt 150g (5.3 oz) of chocolate using a double boiler or microwave. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer, ensuring it’s evenly coated.

Decorate the tree:

• Dice a handful of pistachio nuts and sprinkle them over the chocolate layer. Add 30g (1 oz) of goji berries or freeze-dried raspberries for festive colour, and finish with a light sprinkle of sea salt.

Cut and serve:

• Once set, remove the parchment and carefully cut the tree into portions. Serve immediately or store in the fridge until ready to enjoy.

Chocolate Cream Hot Chocolate

• In a saucepan, combine 250ml oat milk and 250ml oat cream. Heat gently over medium heat until warm but not boiling.
• While the milk mixture heats, chop 50g chocolate finely and zest 1 orange.
• Add the chopped chocolate and orange zest to the warm milk mixture.
• Whisk continuously until the chocolate is fully melted, and the mixture thickens to a ganache-like consistency.
• Pour into your favourite mug and serve immediately. The rich, velvety texture makes this hot chocolate truly luxurious.

Pistachio Milk Hot Chocolate

• Prepare 500ml pistachio milk using a plant milk maker or blend 100g of soaked pistachios with water and strain.
• Heat the pistachio milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Add 3 cardamom pods (lightly crushed) and 3 rose petals, allowing the flavours to infuse as the milk warms.
• Chop 50g chocolate finely and whisk it into the warm pistachio milk until fully melted and smooth.
• Pour the hot chocolate into a mug and top with a dollop of whipped cream. Garnish with additional rose petals for a stunning and aromatic finish.
• This fragrant and decadent drink is a favourite, offering a perfect balance of floral and nutty flavours.

Purest Cacao Bean Hot Chocolate

• Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Spread 100g raw cacao beans evenly on a baking tray and roast for 10-12 minutes until aromatic. Let them cool, then crack and peel them to remove the husks.
• Grind the peeled cacao beans in a pestle and mortar or a high-powered blender until smooth, forming a paste (cocoa liquor).
• In a saucepan, combine 500ml oat milk, 30g coconut sugar, a pinch of salt, and 1 vanilla pod (split lengthwise and seeds scraped into the mix). Heat over medium heat.
• Add the cacao paste to the warm oat milk mixture. Whisk thoroughly until the cacao is fully dissolved, and the mixture is smooth.
• Serve the hot chocolate in small cups to savour its rich, intense flavour. This recipe highlights the pure, unadulterated essence of roasted cacao beans.

Chocolate layer

• Get a 1 lb loaf baking tin and grease with a little oil and carefully line with baking parchment right up the sides. Ensure the paper is sticking to the baking tin
• Chop the chocolate into small pieces and add to a bowl along with the vegetable oil and melt using a bain marie or microwave. Carefully pour in the melted chocolate to the lined loaf tin and tilt it around letting gravity do its work so that the chocolate coats all the sides evenly. Tip out any excess chocolate and set aside in the freezer for 10 mins or fridge for 15 mins.

Whip cream

• Add the plant based cream to a large bowl along with the icing sugar, along with the cream cheese and scrape out the inside of the vanilla pod and add. Using an electric whisk whip the cream until you reach stiff peaks, this should take 4-5 mins. It should be super smooth with stiff peaks. You want to ensure it’s thick enough so that it will hold its shape.

Coffee soak

• In a bowl add the coffee ready to dunk the biscuits.

Plating up

• Carefully scoop out half of the cream layer and into the base of the chocolate shell and spread it out evenly, it should fill ⅓ of the chocolate case. On top of the cream layer, spoon over a layer of the cherries. Next dip the biscuits into the coffee soak and add 2 layers of soaked biscuits on top of the cherries (if you are using lady finger biscuits or similar thicker biscuits just put in a single layer). Repeat this process adding cream on top of the biscuits, followed by cherries, followed by soaked biscuits. You want to ensure that there are no gaps and that the loaf tin is full. Set aside in the freezer for 10 mins to set.

Ready to serve

• Place a serving plan upside down on top of the tin (held up correctly!) Secure the plate and tin with both hands and lift and invert the tin onto the plate. Slowly lift off the tin and peel away the baking paper. Dust with some cocoa powder and some chocolate shavings. Use a hot knife to cut or else just crack with a large spoon!
• Enjoy!

• Preheat your oven to 220°C (440°F).

Prepare the Cauliflower:

• Parboil the cauliflower: Fill and boil the kettle, add the just boiled water to a large saucepan (approx 5L) with 1 tbsp of salt. Remove any damaged leaves from the cauliflower and clean the cauliflower. Add to the saucepan and cover with a lid and leave to steam for 10 mins. Carefully remove the cauliflower from the pot and drain and place on a baking tray
• In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, smoked paprika, tamari, maple syrup, & salt. Rub this mixture all over the cauliflower and bake in the oven for 20 mins until it starts to char around the edges

Make the Cranberry Glaze:

• Add the ingredients for the cranberry glaze to a blender and blend till smooth. It should be runny and have a bright red colour. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking.

Make the Butterbean spread:

• Drain and rinse the butter beans, peel the garlic, and add to a food processor or blender along with the rest of the ingredients for the butterbean spread and blend till silky smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking.

Prepare the Green Herb Sauce:

• Blend parsley, olive oil, vinegar, capers, garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth (if you prefer a chunkier texture you can also finely chop the parsley and capers or grind up all ingredients to a nestle and mortar). Add water or more oil if needed for a drizzleable consistency. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking.

Assemble the Dish:

• Spread the buttery mash on a large serving platter. Place the roasted cauliflower on top. Drizzle over the cranberry glaze followed by the green herb sauce around and over the cauliflower. Serve warm and enjoy!

Prepare Hazelnuts:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C.
• Spread the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and toast for 8-10 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.
• Transfer the toasted hazelnuts to a clean tea towel and rub them to remove the skins.
• Set aside 100g of skinned hazelnuts for hazelnut butter and reserve 20 whole hazelnuts for centres. Roughly chop the remaining hazelnuts.

Make Hazelnut Butter:

• In a food processor, blend 100g skinned roasted hazelnuts with the coconut oil and a pinch of salt until they form a nut butter (3-5 mins).

Prepare Filling:

• Remove stones from Medjool dates, leaving roughly 200g.
• Add pitted dates, vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and 3-4 tbsp water to the hazelnut butter. Blend until a smooth ball forms.

Form Balls:

• Take a small portion of the filling (approx 20g) and place a whole hazelnut in the middle.
• Roll into smooth balls (approx 1.5-2 cm diameter), ensuring the hazelnut is centred. Repeat for all filling, you should get approx 20 balls.
• Roll balls in the chopped hazelnuts, pressing gently so they stick.

Coat in Chocolate:

• Melt chocolate in a bain-marie or microwave.
• Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, then sprinkle chopped hazelnuts on top.

Enjoy:

• Allow the chocolate to set before serving. Enjoy your healthier Ferrero Rocher protein balls!

Juice the Ingredients:

• Feed the cranberries and apples, through your Namawell J2 juicer.

Transfer to Fermentation Vessel:

• Pour the juice into a sterilized glass jar, leaving at least 1-2 inches of headspace for bubbling.
• Optional: Add a few slices of citrus fruit, ginger, cinnamon sticks, star anise and cloves to the jar to enhance the aromatic notes. We recommend using organic, unwaxed citrus fruit, as we want to preserve the wild yeast on the outer skin of the fruit which kickstarts the fermentation process.

Kickstart Fermentation:

• Cover the jar with a cheesecloth or a loose-fitting lid to allow wild yeast and bacteria from the environment to interact with the juice.
• Place the jar in a warm, dark place (around 18-24°C / 65-75°F) for 2-4 days

Monitor the Fermentation:

• Look for small bubbles and a slight tangy aroma, indicating fermentation is active.
• Taste daily to avoid over-fermentation; you want it lightly fizzy and tangy, not overly sour.

Strain and Bottle:

• Strain the fermented juice into airtight bottles to remove ginger and apple pieces.
• Seal tightly and allow it to ferment for an additional 2-5 days at room temperature for carbonation. Ensure to burp each day to prevent a build up of excess carbonation, this simply means open the lid and close it for a second each day!
• Refrigerate to stop fermentation and retain fizz.

Serve

• Serve over ice in a tall glass.
• Garnish with a sugar rim by mixing orange zest & sugar and rolling the rim of the glass in the sugar mixture. Garnish with a slice of orange and cinnamon stick

• Break up the chocolate into small pieces and put in a bowl.
• Finely dice the pistachios and hazelnuts into a fine crumb ensuring to keep them separate. You could alternatively use a blender. Do the same with the freeze dried raspberries
• Put the oat milk and butter into a medium sauce pan on high heat. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer until the butter has melted.
• Remove from the heat and pour over the chocolate.
• Leave to sit for 1 minute and stir until it’s all well combined and super chocolatey.
• Divide into three bowls, in one bowl add half the pistachio crumb and mix through, in the second bowl add half of the hazelnut crumb and mix through and in the final bowl add half of the freeze dried raspberries and mix through.
• Put each of the three bowls in the fridge to set, this will take approx 20-30 mins.
• Remove once set and roll into small balls (approx 15g in weight) being careful not to handle too much as they will melt if you handle them too much.
• Coat each different truffle in their respective topping as in the pistachio truffle coat in pistachio and similarly with the other two varieties
• Put in a small box or clear bag, label up and enjoy!

Melt Chocolate, layer into mould and freeze

• Chop the chocolate into small pieces and melt using a bain marie or microwave. Divide into two bowls. Take half of the melted chocolate and divide between all the squares in the mould. You want to fill each square with chocolate and use a small spoon to brush the chocolate up the sides a little so they form little cups. Put the chocolate filled moulds into the freezer so the chocolate hardens for 15 mins.

Make pistachio layer and layer on

• Add the shelled pistachio nuts to a food processor along with the coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla extract and blend till it forms a silky smooth pistachio butter. This will take a few mins and if your food processor is heating up give it a little break.
• Once the chocolate is set, remove from the freezer and spoon the pistachio butter onto each square.

Cover with melted chocolate and cool to set

• Pour the additional melted chocolate over the pistachio layer, spreading evenly for a smooth layer. Put in the fridge to set for 30 mins before removing each square and enjoying!

Notes

• If you don’t have a silicone mould , you can use a regular baking tray and cut them into squares.

Preheat the oven.

• Preheat the oven to 200°C (375°F).

Prepare the vegetables and other ingredients.

• Peel and finely dice the red onion. Peel and grate the carrot. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Chop the sun-dried tomatoes into small pieces.

Assemble everything in a casserole dish.

• In a large casserole or baking dish, add the diced onion, grated carrot, lentils, pasta, vegetable stock, plant milk, chopped tomatoes, nutritional yeast, garlic, thyme/rosemary, sun-dried tomatoes, maple syrup, and black pepper. Gently mix everything to combine. Ensure the pasta is fully submerged in the liquid for even cooking. Top with the halved cherry tomatoes and chopped basil.

Bake the pasta.

• Cover the dish tightly with a lid or aluminium foil. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente. Remove the foil or lid and bake for a further 10 mins or until the pasta is cooked and soft but still has some bite.

Stir and garnish.

• Remove the dish from the oven and carefully stir to ensure the sauce is evenly distributed. Sprinkle with chilli flakes (if using) or a glug of olive oil and garnish with fresh basil leaves.

Serve and enjoy.

• Serve immediately, topped with additional fresh basil and vegan Parmesan, if desired.

Prepare the jar

• Use a clean, sterilised 1.5-liter glass jar to avoid contamination.

Dissolve the sugar

• In a separate container, dissolve 100g (½ cup) of sugar in 1L (4 cups) of water until fully mixed.

Prepare the ingredients

• Slice the apples into quarters. Finely slice the ginger and turmeric. Cut the lemons into quarters.

Add to the jar

• Add the apple slices, ginger, turmeric, and lemons to the jar. Follow with the mint leaves, a pinch of black pepper, and the coconut oil.

Pour in the sugar water

• Pour the sugar water into the jar, ensuring the ingredients are fully submerged. Use a clean weight or small plate to keep floating pieces submerged.

Cover the jar

• Cover the jar with a breathable cloth (like cheesecloth) and secure it with a rubber band. This allows airflow while keeping dust and bugs out.

Start fermentation

• Place the jar in a warm, dark spot (20-25°C or 68-77°F) for 1 week to 10 days. Stir the mixture every 2-3 days to promote fermentation and prevent mould formation.

Strain and continue fermenting

• After 1 week – 10 days, strain out the solids and return the liquid to the jar. Cover with the cloth again and let it ferment for another 3-4 weeks, stirring occasionally.

Taste test

• After the second fermentation, taste the vinegar. If tangy enough, it’s ready. If not, let it ferment for another week.

Bottle and store

• Transfer the finished vinegar to a clean bottle. Seal tightly and store in the refrigerator or a cool, dark place.

Make the Turmeric Bug

• Finely chop the ginger and turmeric. Quarter the lemon.
• Add the turmeric, ginger, lemon, and sugar to a sterilised jar, then pour in the water. Stir well, seal with a lid, and label the jar with the date.
• Leave the mixture to ferment at room temperature. Each day for the next 5 days, “burp” the jar by briefly opening the lid to release any built-up gas, then re-seal. This prevents excess pressure from building up.
• After 5 days, you’ll have a fizzy turmeric bug with a yeasty aroma, similar to beer or bread—signs that it’s ready to use. You can use it immediately or store it in the fridge, where it will keep for around 1 week.

Make the Juice

• Peel the grapefruit, orange, and lemon.
• Cut the carrots into chunks
• Add all ingredients into the juicer and blend

Combine the Turmeric Bug and Juice

• Mix the carrot and citrus juice with the turmeric bug and enjoy!
• We recommend a ratio of 1 part turmeric bug to 3 part juice.

• Prepare the Jar: Use a clean, sterilised 1.5-liter glass jar.
• Dissolve the Sugar: In a separate container, dissolve the 100g (½ cup) of sugar in 1 litre (4 cups) of water.
• Add Apple Scraps: Place the apple peels and cores in the jar. Make sure they take up about half of the jar, leaving space for the water.
• Pour in the Sugar Water: Pour the sugar water over the apple scraps, covering them completely. If any pieces float, place a clean weight or small plate to keep them submerged.
• Cover the Jar: Cover the jar with a breathable cloth (like cheesecloth) and secure it with a rubber band. This allows airflow and keeps dust and bugs out.
• Fermentation: Place the jar in a warm, dark place (around 20-25°C or 68-77°F) for approx 1 week to 10 days. Stir the mixture every couple of days to help with fermentation and prevent mould.
• Strain and Continue Fermenting: After 1 week – 10 days of initial fermentation, strain out the apple scraps and return the liquid to the jar. Add in the apple cider vinegar to help guide the next fermentation process and to speed up the process. Cover it again with the cloth and let it ferment for another 3-4 weeks until it reaches the desired acidity.
• Taste Test: After the second fermentation period, taste the vinegar. If it’s tangy enough, it’s ready to use. If not, let it ferment for another week.
• Bottle and Store: Once ready, transfer the vinegar to a clean bottle and seal. Store it in the refrigerator or a cool, dark place.

Prepare the vegetables:

• Cut the Napa cabbage lengthwise into quarters. Remove the core and outer leaves and chop them into bite-sized pieces or leave them long if preferred. Julienne 1.5 kg of radish and carrots into thin matchsticks. If you have the stalks of the radish, finely chop these. Remove any stalk from the rose hips. Cut the scallions into 1-inch pieces. Add to a large bowl and mix with the salt.

  To remove the rosehip seeds:

  – Slice the Rosehips: First, cut each rosehip in half with a sharp knife. This exposes the seeds and makes them easier to reach.

  – Scoop or Scrape: Use a small spoon or knife tip to scoop or scrape out the seeds. You can wear gloves if the fine hairs bother your skin.

  – Rinse Well: After removing the seeds, rinse the rosehip halves thoroughly to wash away any remaining hairs.

Prepare rice porridge:

• In a saucepan, combine 500ml of water with 3 tbsp of rice flour. Bring to a boil, stirring regularly, and simmer for 5 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.

Make the kimchi paste:

• Peel and finely grate 12g of ginger and the 6g of fresh turmeric and 5 cloves of garlic. In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, grated ginger, turmeric, 8 tbsp of gochugaru, 4 tbsp of tamari, 2 tbsp of maple syrup, and 1/2 tsp of seaweed powder (if using). Mix well to form a thick paste. Add this to the cooled rice porridge to form the sauce. Taste and adjust the spice level by adding more gochugaru if desired.

Combine ingredients:

• Add the prepared salted vegetables to the kimchi paste. Massage the paste into the vegetables until they are evenly coated.

Pack and label in jars:

• Pack the kimchi tightly into clean glass jars, pressing down firmly to remove any air pockets. Ensure the vegetables are submerged under the sauce as this is anaerobic fermentation. Leave about 1 inch of space at the top of each jar. Label each jar with the date.

Fermentation:

• Seal the jars tightly and let them ferment at room temperature for 1 to 5 days, depending on your desired level of fermentation. Check the kimchi daily and press it down with a clean spoon to keep the vegetables submerged in their juices. The longer you ferment it the more acidic it will become. Also the warmer the room temperature the quicker it will become acidic too.

Refrigerate:

• Once the kimchi reaches your preferred level of fermentation, put in the fridge to halt fermentation. Your kimchi will last for many months in the fridge.

Make the refried beans:

• Drain and rinse the 400g (14 oz) tin of kidney beans. Add to a frying pan on high heat and cook for 2 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, 1 tbsp tamari, and begin mashing the beans with a potato masher. The beans when mashed will thicken the mixture, so gradually add 70ml (¼ cup) of water while continuing to mash. Cook until the mixture forms a thick paste. Taste and adjust seasoning. Set aside.

Make the guacamole:

• Scoop out the flesh of the 2 avocados and dice them. Quarter the 10 cherry tomatoes and mix them with the avocado. Add 1 tsp ground cumin, juice of ½ lime, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning.

Make the pumpkin cheese:

• Add 100g (⅓ cup) of pumpkin purée, 3 tbsp vegetable oil, 2 tbsp nutritional yeast, 65ml (¼ cup) oat milk, 1 tsp salt, and juice of ½ lime into a blender. Blend until smooth. If the consistency is too thick, add more oat milk; if too thin, add more pumpkin purée. Taste and adjust seasoning to your preference.

Slice the smoked tofu:

• Slice the 200g (7 oz) block of smoked tofu into thin strips.

Assemble and cook the quesadillas:

• Heat a clean frying pan over medium heat. Place a tortilla in the pan, spread 2 tbsp of the pumpkin cheese across the tortilla, and then layer with some refried beans, guacamole, and smoked tofu slices on one half. Fold the tortilla over and cook on both sides until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

Enjoy your delicious autumn-inspired quesadillas!

• Cut the turmeric and ginger into small pieces
• Peel your oranges and lemons.
• Add all of the ingredients into your blender. Pop the lid on and blend on high until super smooth.
• Typically this is sieved to give a super silky texture but in doing so you lose some of the goodness from the fibre so we have left ours as is.
• We stored ours in a 1L Jar in the fridge for 5 days and had a good shot of it each day. Great way to give you a boost to help keep colds and flu at bay!

• Cut the green parts off the chillies and slice them open, leaving the seeds in place. Peel the garlic cloves.
• Weigh the combined weight of the chillies, garlic, turmeric and ginger. Multiply by 2% (.02) to calculate the salt required for fermentation (e.g., if the combined weight is 560 g, multiply by 2%, giving you 11.2 g of salt).
• Add the chillies, garlic, ginger, turmeric and salt to a clean jar. Submerge with water and weigh down with a clean lid to keep everything below the surface. Label the jar and leave it to ferment for 7–10 days in a warm environment, away from direct sunlight.
• Burp the chillies every day by opening the lid to release any natural carbonation, then reseal. The water will become cloudy, and bubbles will form as fermentation progresses.
• If using carrot to reduce the heat, finely slice and roast it at 200°C for 45 minutes, until soft and with a melt-in-your-mouth texture.
• Once fermentation is complete, drain the chillies, garlic, and ginger. Keep the brine.
• Blend the chillies, garlic, ginger, turmeric roasted carrot, vinegar, syrup, tamari, salt, and pepper until super smooth. Pass through a sieve for a finer texture.
• Taste and adjust seasoning to your liking by adding more vinegar, syrup, or salt.
• Using a funnel, pour the sauce into bottles. This will last for many months in the fridge and makes a great gift.
• Enjoy!

• Make sure the spout cap is closed, then pop all your ingredients into the filter basket.
• Secure the lid, set the blend time to 1 minute, and hit Start!
• When prompted, open the spout. After about 10 seconds, the spin cycle kicks in, and before you know it, your milk is ready to enjoy!
• You can use the leftover pulp to make energy balls or pistachio truffles!

• Once you’ve extracted the pistachio pulp from the Nama M1 machine, pop it into a blender along with the dates, vanilla extract, matcha (if you’re using it), and a pinch of salt.
• Blend everything until smooth and combined.
• Scoop out 1 tablespoon of the mixture, roll it into a ball, and coat it in melted dark chocolate.
• For an extra touch, top the chocolate-coated balls with crushed pistachios (optional). Or, if you prefer, skip the chocolate and roll them in coconut flakes instead.
• Pop into the fridge for up to an hour until the chocolate sets and enjoy!

Blend the pumpkin overnight oats:

• In a blender, add 90g (1 cup) rolled oats, 1 tbsp chia seeds, 75g (1/3 cup) pumpkin purée, 240ml (1 cup) oat milk, 1 tsp maple syrup, ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice, and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Blend until smooth, then divide the mixture evenly between two glasses or jars.

Mix the maple-spiced cream:

• In a small bowl, mix together 6 tbsp coconut yoghurt, 1 tbsp maple syrup, and ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice. Spoon the mixture on top of the pumpkin overnight oats in each glass.

Prepare the chocolate shell:

• Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave or over a bain-marie. Carefully pour the melted chocolate on top of the cream layer in each glass, then allow it to set and harden.

Garnish and enjoy:

• Sprinkle toasted pecans on top of the hardened chocolate layer. Serve immediately or store in the fridge overnight for a delicious breakfast or snack.
