Easy and healthier chocolate cake recipe

This healthy chocolate pie with pomegranate seeds is super easy and quick to bake if you need a recipe for something for your afternoon coffee. With a chocolate base and a rich chocolate cream filling, the pie is quite confectionery-like and in danger of becoming too heavy. But by filling the pie with lots of pomegranate seeds, the chocolate cream gets a freshness that provides a wonderful balance. And it tastes absolutely wonderful when you keep getting little explosions of pomegranate juice with every crunchy bite. Although the pie is on the heavy side, it is also on the healthier side. The creamy and fatty texture does not come from cream but from coconut milk - and the cake is not sweetened with sugar but with a little coconut nectar or maple syrup. 

TIP: Also try this recipe: nut pie or a classic apple pie

Different Christmas sweets

The chocolate pie is perfect for the Christmas month because it is intense and chocolaty. A bit like Christmas candy disguised in a beautiful and beautiful pie. It is fantastic to serve if you - or your guests - are not into marzipan, or if you simply want a healthier alternative to the classic Christmas candy. However, it can easily be served all year round, as it does not contain Christmas spices or the like. The pie can satisfy even the most stubborn chocolate cravings! 

Pomegranate seeds as a sprinkle and topping

Pomegranate seeds are both beautiful and flavorful. The small, juicy, jewel-like seeds are fortunately suitable for most - as a topping on oatmeal, in a salad or as a sprinkle on a curry. The small seeds add lots of sweetness and acidity to the food and are therefore a fresh twist that can give the creamy and fatty a little contrast. That's exactly what the beautiful seeds do in this pie.

TIP: pomegranate seeds would also taste great as a topping on a chocolate mousse or as a filling in ice cream chocolates or raw chocolate
