Gluten Free Almond, Sour Cherries And Raw Organic Cacao Squares
"This Gluten-Free Almond, sour cherries and cacao bites are made from just six basic ingredients, hardly involve any effort in preparing them and are so delicious. I made this gluten free almond cacao sublime dessert before with other fresh fruits like apricots, peaches or apples but never with sour cherries from the jam. This was the first time. No sour cherry jam = no pancakes – that was tough to comprehend as a kid but luckily, with 2 or even three trees at the back of the garden – we were never short of this wonderfully flavoured jam. They were a little sweeter than my general taste and how I personally like my dessert but children and hubby found them perfect and I’ve got to trust them."
