Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh raspberries

1/2 cup almond butter (smooth or crunchy, depending on preference)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (optional, for coating)

1/4 cup crushed almonds or almond slices (for garnish)

1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for easier mixing)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Raspberries: Start by gently rinsing the fresh raspberries under cold running water. Carefully pat them dry using a paper towel to absorb excess moisture. Set the prepared raspberries aside on a clean plate or paper towel.

    Make the Almond Butter Mixture: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the almond butter, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, sea salt, and coconut oil (if using). Using a spatula or whisk, stir the mixture together until it becomes smooth and uniformly blended, ensuring no lumps remain.

      Coat the Raspberries: Take each raspberry and dip it into the almond butter mixture, ensuring that it is fully coated on all sides. For easier handling, you can hold the raspberry by the stem or gently skewer it with a toothpick.

        Add Coconut (Optional): If you're using shredded coconut for a fun texture, pour it into a shallow dish. After coating a raspberry in the almond butter mix, roll it in the shredded coconut to cover all surfaces evenly.

          Arrange the Clusters: Lay each coated raspberry on a parchment-lined baking sheet, making sure to leave a bit of space between them. This will allow the clusters room to expand slightly as they freeze.

            Garnish: Once all the raspberries are coated, sprinkle the crushed almonds or almond slices generously over the top of the clusters. This not only adds texture but also enhances the presentation.

              Freeze: Carefully transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and allow the clusters to freeze for a minimum of 2 hours or until they achieve a solid, firm consistency.

                Enjoy: After the clusters are frozen, remove them from the baking sheet, placing them in an airtight container for storage in the freezer. Indulge in these delightful frozen treats straight from the freezer for a refreshing snack!
