SEPRA USA LLC

Grab your trusty silicone candy mold (in a cup shape for best results) to make these delicious vegan chocolate tigernut cups! These incredibly decadent candies are like a healthy homemade version of Reese’s cups and are great for satisfying candy cravings without the processed sugar.

These mimic the famous candy’s beloved grainy center by adding tigernut flour to the tigernut butter, which thickens it and makes it easier to spread in the cups as a bonus! Natureul tigernut products are free from artificial ingredients, which also sets these incredible chocolate tigernut cups apart from the store-bought version.

Prep time: 15 minutes

Total time: 35 minutes

Serving size: 2 cups (makes 20 medium cups)

Ingredients

  • 1 cup vegan dark chocolate or chocolate candy melts
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil
  • ⅓ cup Natureul Original Tigernut Butter
  • 1 tablespoon Tigernut Flour
  • Optional: ½ teaspoon coarse or flaky salt for topping

Recipe

  1. Make the filling. Using a fork or whisk, combine the tigernut butter, maple syrup, and flour until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
  2. Using a double boiler or microwave, melt the chocolate or candy melts with the coconut oil, stirring periodically until combined and completely liquid.
  3. Carefully spoon between ½ and 1 full teaspoon of the melted chocolate mixture into each silicone candy cup mold, using the back of the spoon or rotating the mold to ensure that the bottom and sides of each cup are completely coated.
  4. Place the mold into the freezer for 5 minutes until the chocolate has hardened.
  5. Remove the mold from the freezer and spoon ½ teaspoons of the tigernut mixture into each cup and gently press into the cups with the back of the teaspoon to distribute it to the edges.
  6. Put the mold back into the freezer for 5 minutes.
  7. Once the centers have become slightly firm, cover the tops with more melted chocolate (it may be necessary to re-warm the chocolate) and place back into the freezer for 10 minutes until the chocolate has set completely.
  8. Unmold carefully and enjoy your healthy chocolate tigernut cups!

How to Store Vegan Chocolate Tigernut Cups  

Once completely set, store the chocolate tigernut cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 10-14 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Tips for Making Delicious Vegan Chocolate Tigernut Cups

Having trouble getting the cups out of the mold? First, make sure they’ve frozen long enough–then flip the tray over and gently press the center of each cup using your thumbs until the cup pops right out!

Switch up the toppings! You’re not just limited to salt. You can add sprinkles, grind up some Tigernut Granola, or use chopped raw or roasted tigernuts to create some crunch on top of these vegan chocolate tigernut cups. Not a fan of the crunch? Leave them naked!

How to make Cafe-style Tigernut Froyo (Easy Recipe)

SEPRA USA LLC

Get your froyo fix at home with this easy, simple, vegan version of cafe-style froyo, featuring none other than our Original tigernut butter with no added sugar and *no common allergens. *Made dairy-free and using only natural ingredients, this creamy, healthier version of traditional frozen yogurt with tigernut flavor is the perfect midday treat or evening indulgence.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups non-dairy yogurt, plain and unsweetened
  • ¼ cup Natureul Tigernut Butter
  • 2-3 tablespoons sweetener (we used maple syrup)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2-4 tablespoons of non-dairy milk or water

Instructions

  1. Add the yogurt to an ice tray and freeze for at least two hours or overnight.
  2. Add the frozen non-dairy yogurt, butter, sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt to a blender. Pulse to break up the cubes. Once the frozen yogurt has broken down enough to be blended, blend on high for 10-15 seconds, adding liquid one tablespoon at a time until it’s reached your desired consistency.
  3. To create the cafe-style effect, pour the frozen tigernut frozen yogurt into a piping bag or zip-top plastic bag and freeze for ten to fifteen minutes.
  4. If using a piping bag, cut off the tip of the bag and add to another piping bag with the piping tip of your choice inserted. If using a plastic bag, simply snip a hole in one corner and hold the bag at an angle.
  5. Twist the top of the bag closed and squeeze the frozen yogurt out into a bowl from the back of the bag with your dominant hand in a swirling motion, guiding with your non-dominant hand. Make sure to work inwards toward the center to create the signature froyo swirl.
  6. Top with your favorite frozen yogurt toppings or eat plain! Bon appetite!

Tips For Making Cafe-style Tigernut Froyo

Get creative with the piping shape. If you use a smooth, round piping tip, you’ll get a perfectly soft swirl. If you want to mimic soft-serve machines, use a star tip with 6-8 peaks, that will make creases in the swirls like froyo shops often have. You can also use a petal tip to make frilly, fluffy stacks of soft tigernut yogurt.

Add a tigernut-chocolate magic shell. Looking for a chocolatey upgrade? Combine a little melted chocolate with a few tablespoons of tigernut butter and coconut oil. Pour it over the top of the froyo and watch the magic happen!

For a bit of extra interest and a crispy crunch, serve the froyo in a cone or a waffle bowl. Whether you make the cone yourself or use store-bought, any edible ice cream container will work and will be sure to delight your diners!

How to Store Cafe-style Tigernut Froyo

This tigernut frozen yogurt is meant to be enjoyed immediately, but you can freeze it in an ice cube tray overnight and then transfer the cubes to a Ziploc. Blend the cubes again according to the original instructions to resurrect the soft creaminess of the froyo.

How to make Thai-Style Tigernut Green Beans Side Dish (Easy Recipe)

SEPRA USA LLC

The perfect summer side dish has arrived: Thai-style green beans with crunchy toasted chopped tigernuts. Crisp and tender green beans, a savory sauce, and tons of garlicky goodness await in every bite, offering a flavor explosion in exchange for very little effort. 

This recipe comes together in less than 20 minutes – only ten of which are spent in active cooking. *Where recipes usually call for peanut butter, we use allergy-friendly tigernut spread instead, adding an allergy-friendly twist with simple, organic ingredients, no added sugar, and a similar nutty taste.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh French green beans
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small head of garlic
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 2 tablespoons Natureul Tigernut Butter in Original Flavor
  • 1 inch fresh ginger, peeled and minced
  • ¼ cup roasted tigernuts, roughly chopped
  • Optional: ½ - 1 teaspoon red chili flakes

Instructions

  1. Wash and trim the end of the green beans. Peel, crush, and roughly chop the garlic into medium-sized chunks.
  2. Add the green beans, garlic, and oil to a bowl. Toss to coat.
  3. Warm up a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped tigernuts and toast for 2 minutes, then remove from the pan and set aside.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the green bean mixture.
  5. Allow the green beans and garlic to cook until fragrant, approximately 5-7 minutes, tossing with tongs or stirring with a wooden spoon periodically to prevent burning.
  6. Add the ginger, tigernut butter, soy sauce, and optional chili flakes.
  7. Allow the mixture to cook for 2-3 more minutes, tossing occasionally to coat the green beans in the sauce.
  8. Just before removing the green beans from the skillet, add the chopped toasted tigernuts and toss to distribute evenly.
  9. Serve as a side with your favorite Thai entree!

Tips For Making Thai-Style Tigernut Green Beans

Buy pre-cut green beans. If you’re looking for a shortcut, the best one you can make is to buy pre-cut green beans. This will save you tons of time on hand-trimming both ends of every single green bean and allow you to get straight to cooking much faster! 

If you need a substitute for the crushed and chopped garlic, you can use a diced shallot or jarred minced garlic instead, whether you’re short on time or low on pantry ingredients. 

Don’t use canned or pickled green beans. It may be tempting to grab a convenient can from your stores to use in this recipe, but the crispness of fresh green beans is what makes the tigernut green beans stand out.

How to Store Thai-Style Tigernut Green Beans

You can store these Thai-style tigernut green beans in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days. If you need to store them longer, transfer them to a Ziploc or other freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw them in the fridge overnight and reheat on the stovetop for best results.

How to make Single-serving Tigernut Peach Crumble with GF Oat Topping (Easy Recipe)

SEPRA USA LLC

If you’ve got a severe sweet tooth but not enough energy to bake a pie, this single-serving tigernut peach crumble with a gluten-free oat topping is the answer to your prayers. Made in less than 20 minutes (plus cooling time) and containing less than 10 ingredients, it’s easy, breezy, and delicious. 

The secret is the combination of juicy peach and our creamy, buttery, nutty tigernut butter. Our organic, non-GMO, non-dairy tigernut butter with no added sugar is the perfect pairing to fresh fruit and a crispy topping. *Plus, they’re allergy-friendly because they don’t contain any actual nuts! This tigernut peach crumble is a no-brainer when it comes to choosing a quick homemade dessert for one – just chop the peaches, toss all the filling ingredients together and bake, then pop on the crispy topping for a few more minutes in the oven.

Ingredients

  • 1 large yellow peach or 3 small white peaches
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar, plus more for topping
  • 3 tablespoons Natureul Tigernut Butter
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil or other neutral oil
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons certified gluten-free oats

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350℉.
  2. Slice the peach (or peaches, depending on your preference of yellow or white peaches) in half, remove the stone, and then dice into ½ inch pieces. You can peel the peaches or leave the skin on, depending on your tastes.
  3. Add the peaches, coconut oil, tigernut butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, salt, and 3 tablespoons of brown sugar to a small ramekin or oven-safe coffee mug. Stir to combine.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
  5. Carefully remove the ramekin from the oven with an oven mit. Top with the oats and the remaining brown sugar.
  6. Place the ramekin back in the oven for 5 minutes.
  7. Remove the peach crumble from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before enjoying!

Tips For Making Tigernut Peach Crumble

Prep the peaches ahead of time. You can cut down on labor in the moment and make the peach crumble more convenient by using frozen peach chunks or by cutting and storing the peaches yourself before you’re ready to make the full crumble!

Not a fan of peaches? Swap them with apricots, mangoes, apples, bananas, pears or other soft fruit. They should get tender and juicy in the crumble just like the peaches, and all of these fruits would taste delicious with the creamy, nutty taste of the tigernut butter!

How to Store Tigernut Peach Crumble

To store leftover tigernut peach crumble, scoop the cooled leftovers out of the ramekin and into an airtight container. Store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to a month. Allow it to thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating or eating again.

How to make Roasted Butternut Squash with Tigernut-Honey Glaze (Easy Recipe)

SEPRA USA LLC

Summer is just around the corner, and with it comes a (hopefully) bountiful garden harvest. This roasted butternut squash with a tigernut-honey glaze is perfectly sweet, tender, and creamy thanks to the addition of our original Tigernut Butter. The earthy, nutty flavor of the tigernut butter perfectly complements the butternut squash’s natural sweetness and adds a more complex taste and texture to a simple vegetable. *Made without artificial ingredients, processed sugar, or common allergens, our Tigernut Butter is the perfect addition to this simple side dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 small butternut squash
  • 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons Natureul Tigernut Butter in Classic flavor
  • ¼ teaspoon fine salt
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350℉.
  2. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the hard outer skin of the squash. Carefully slice the squash in half lengthwise, then use a spoon to scoop out the seeds. Cut the squash into 1 - 1 ½ inch cubes.
  3. Add the squash to a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
  4. Spread the squash in a single layer on a lined baking sheet and place in the oven. Bake the squash for 12-15 minutes until fork-tender and crisp on the edges.
  5. In a small bowl, stir together the honey and tigernut butter until combined. Carefully pour over the squash and then bake again for another 5-7 minutes until the glaze thickens.
  6. Remove the baked tigernut-honey glazed squash from the oven and allow to cool before plating.

Tips For Making Roasted Butternut Squash with Tigernut-Honey Glaze

Choose a smaller squash. It may be tempting to go for the most massive specimen at the supermarket, but a smaller butternut squash is easier to work with. If you need to make a large amount, use several small squashes.

To make the squash easier to work with, chop it where the bulb meets the neck before slicing the parts lengthwise. Do this after peeling the whole squash to make the process easier on yourself.

Use local honey. Honey that’s local to you is good for your environment and great for your immune system! Honey from different farms will taste different according to the plants they pollinate, so try different varieties to see what works best for you.

Make it sweeter. If you like your butternut squash sweeter, add a few more tablespoons of honey to brighten things up. Add a squeeze of lemon for an even bigger burst of flavor!

How to Store Roasted Butternut Squash with Tigernut-Honey Glaze

You can store the roasted butternut squash in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 7 days. Freezing it is simple, too: just make sure your container is freezer-safe and freeze the squash for up to 6 months. If you want it to be easy to cook from frozen, freeze it in a single layer on a lined baking sheet until solid, then transfer it to a Ziploc or other sealed bag. Reheat on a baking sheet following the original instructions.

Tips For Making Hot Tigernut Pita Pocket with Spicy Chicken and Chickpeas

How to make Caramelized Banana Tigernut Breakfast Sushi (Easy Recipe)

SEPRA USA LLC

Looking for a speedy, tasty, simple but exciting breakfast? Mix up your usual morning routine of cereal and waffles by tossing in these caramelized banana tigernut “sushi” pieces – made of just 5 ingredients and finger food-friendly, they’re the ideal breakfast or mobile snack.

*And, thanks to Natureul’s wholesomely-formulated tigernut butter, it’s a healthy option with no added processed sugars, no GMOs, and an allergy-friendly alternative to traditional nut butters. Grab a jar and get to rolling these tasty tigernut banana sushi bites right away!

Ingredients

  • 1 medium-large ripe banana
  • Natureul Tigernut Butter, Classic Flavor
  • 1 large flour tortilla (we used seedy multigrain tortillas)
  • 2 teaspoons Coconut oil
  • Honey or agave nectar for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Spread the tigernut butter on one side of the tortilla. Make sure to evenly coat all the way to the edges of the tortilla, as this will act as the glue that seals the edges and holds the “sushi” together.
  2. Place the banana on top of the spread towards one side of the tortilla. If you have a curvy banana, straighten it out a bit to ensure it rolls evenly. It may break in a few places, that’s okay.
  3. Roll the banana tightly in the tortilla. Seal the tortilla together on the edges.
  4. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the wrapped banana into rounds, making them about an inch to an inch and a half thick. Use a gentle sawing motion to prevent ripping the tortilla.
  5. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Add coconut oil and allow it to heat up before adding the banana rounds.
  6. Once the oil has had time to heat up, add the wrapped banana slices, cut side-down so the banana is touching the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, then flip and fry for another 2-3 minutes to achieve the same effect on the other side.
  7. Use a spatula to remove the banana sushi slices from the pan and turn off the heat.
  8. Serve and eat as-is, or drizzle with honey or agave nectar. Eat with chopsticks for the full sushi experience or use your fingers for easy cleanup!

Tips For Making Caramelized Banana Tigernut Breakfast Sushi

Use very ripe bananas. Bananas should be ripe enough to be pliable but not squishy enough to fall apart. Riper bananas will have more natural sugar content and caramelize faster and more evenly, whereas more unripe bananas will be starchier and not caramelize as easily.

Use a flexible tortilla. This recipe relies on rolling the tortilla tightly, so the more soft and flexible the tortilla, the better.

Skip the skillet. Running low on time or just prefer raw bananas to cooked? Because the ingredients are ready-to-eat and safe raw, you can skip the cooking steps and eat it cold.

Get ahead. Meal prep a few breakfasts ahead of time by preparing several wrapped and sliced bananas in advance, then reheat, eat cold, or take them on the go for a convenient breakfast or snack.

How to Store Caramelized Banana Tigernut Breakfast Sushi

If you can’t finish all of the banana tigernut breakfast sushi or want to prep it ahead for later, you can place the cooled pieces in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to five days or freeze for up to two weeks.

How to make Gooey Chocolate Chip Tigernut Cookie Bars (Easy Recipe)

SEPRA USA LLC

These Gooey Chocolate Chip Tigernut Cookie Bars are almost like a brownie and a cookie had a baby–but it’s not quite a blondie or a brookie, thanks to the use of better-for-you ingredients, the resulting cookie bars are deliciously soft and gooey in the center and don’t set completely firm like a regular cookie or brownie might.

Natureul’s Tigernut Butter is the one ingredient that sets this decadent dessert apart from the rest. It adds a sweet and mildly nutty flavor, despite being completely nut free with no added sugars!

Our Tigernut Butter changes the game with simple, wholesome, organic ingredients.

Prep time: 10 minutes

Bake time: 20-25 minutes

Total time: 30 minutes

Makes 9-12 square cookie bars

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour of choice (gluten free flour, tigernut flour, or almond flour will work)
  • 1 egg (or flax egg), room temperature
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup sweetener of choice (sugar, erythritol, maple syrup, stevia, or monkfruit can be used)
  • ¾ cup Natureul Tigernut Butter 
  • ¼ cup milk or plant-based milk alternative
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips

  2. Combine the flour, sweetener, and salt in a medium-sized bowl.

  4. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Add the dark chocolate chips and fold them in gently until they are evenly distributed.

  7. Allow to cool completely before removing from the pan and slicing into squares. Enjoy!

How to Store These Gooey Chocolate Chip Tigernut Cookie Bars

You can store these tigernut cookie bars in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Refrigeration is necessary if you used dairy milk instead of a non-dairy milk in this recipe. You can freeze them in a freezer-safe container for up to 6 months.

Tips for Making the Best Gooey Chocolate Chip Tigernut Cookie Bars

Don’t skip the cool time. Because these bars are so deliciously soft and gooey, you should wait until they have cooled and set before slicing into them or risk making a mess.

If you want a sweet cold treat, you can turn them into ice cream sandwiches! Just freeze the cookie bars on a lined baking sheet after you cut them. Once they’re frozen solid, spread some slightly-thawed ice cream of your choice on the bottom of a bar and sandwich with another bar. Wrap each par tightly in parchment paper, freeze again, and enjoy!
