If you love cinnamon, you’ll love these blood sugar balancing fat bombs, they are addictive! They also hold up at room temperature…..so you can put them in the kids lunches or serve them to guests on a platter : )

1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup coconut butter
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp plain stevia
How to do it:
Melt the coconut oil and coconut butter on the stovetop with the cinnamon and stevia at medium heat (it will slightly roast the cinnamon which adds such a delicious flavour, but stir often so that it doesn’t burn to the bottom of the pot).
Put into your blender once melted and blend until smooth.
This refreshing beverage will not only hydrate you first thing in the am, but will provide the medicinal and nutritional benefits of turmeric (anti inflammatory), black pepper (boost HCL and absorption), cinnamon (blood sugar balancing) and cayenne (boosts circulation).

Making it a habit…
Now here is some help to make drinking this a habit. Purchase some tiny containers or jars and pre measure the spices. That way each morning, all you have to do is boil the water and squeeze the lemon!
If you want to pre squeeze the lemon, you can do that as well.
Simply squeeze 6 lemons, add a tsp of salt and an 1/8th cup of whey or apple cider vinegar to keep it fresh and add the benefit of good bacteria!
You’ll have more than enough for a weeks worth of Liver Loving Lemon tea and you can use the extra in cooking etc.
This is one of my favourite tasting fat bombs. Unlike many fat bomb recipes, this one has enough cocoa butter that you can actually keep these outside of the fridge and they won’t melt….yay!!

1/3 cup carob powder
1 tsp hazel nut flavoured liquid stevia
How to do it:
1. Melt the coconut oil and butter on the stove top.
2. Blend in the remaining ingredients
3. Pour into glass contains, square candy mold or silicone ice cube tray.
4. Refrigerated until firm.
