Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Fondue
- 10 oz. chopped dairy free chocolate
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: additional flavorings such as cinnamon, espresso powder, or orange zest
Instructions
- Heat the ingredients: Gently melt the chopped dairy free chocolate and almond milk together in a heavy bottomed saucepan over low heat. Stir or whisk regularly to ensure the chocolate doesn't burn or stick, and avoid boiling or simmering the mixture.
- Adjust consistency: Once the chocolate is completely melted and has a glossy texture, check the consistency. If you prefer a thinner fondue, add extra almond milk a few tablespoons at a time until you reach your desired thickness.
- Serve warm: Pour the warm fondue into a serving bowl and enjoy with your favorite dippers like fresh berries, pineapple chunks, apple slices, gluten free pretzels, animal crackers, or bite-sized brownies and cake pieces.
Notes
- Use good quality dairy free chocolate for best flavor and smooth texture.
- If the fondue thickens too much as it cools, gently reheat it with a little more almond milk.
- Try adding flavor variations such as cinnamon, espresso powder, or a splash of liqueur for a unique twist.
- This recipe is naturally gluten free and dairy free; perfect for vegan and paleo diets.
- Pairs wonderfully with a variety of fresh fruits and gluten-free snacks for dipping.
