Fondue Ingredients
- 10 oz. chopped dairy free chocolate
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: additional flavorings such as cinnamon, chili powder, or peppermint extract
Instructions
- Melt Chocolate and Milk: Gently melt together the chopped dairy free chocolate and almond milk in a heavy bottomed saucepan over low heat. Stir or whisk regularly to prevent burning and avoid boiling or simmering.
- Adjust Consistency: When the chocolate is completely melted and glossy, check the texture. If you prefer a thinner fondue, add additional almond milk a few tablespoons at a time until desired consistency is reached.
- Serve Warm: Pour the fondue into a serving bowl and serve warm with your favorite dippers such as fresh fruit (berries, pineapple, apples), gluten free pretzels, animal crackers, or cut brownies and cake.
Notes
- This fondue is gluten free, dairy free, vegan, and paleo friendly.
- Use a heavy bottomed saucepan to prevent scorching the chocolate.
- Do not let the mixture boil or simmer to maintain smooth texture.
- Try adding optional flavorings like cinnamon, chili powder, or peppermint extract to customize the fondue.
- Serve immediately for best texture; reheat gently if needed.
