Cherry Chia Topping

1. Put the frozen cherries into a small saucepan and add the water. As it heats use a wooden spoon or potato masher to break down the cherries. Bring to the boil over medium-high heat for a few minutes then reduce the heat to a simmer for another 5 minutes until the mixture thickens.

2. Take the saucepan off the heat and add the brown rice syrup, Chia Seeds, orange juice, orange zest, Beetroot Powder and cinnamon. Stir the mixture until well combined. Let it cool down to room temperature or pop in freezer or fridge to cool faster for a few minutes.

3. Lastly, pour the cooled cherry sauce on top of the base and put into freezer for about 2 hours to set.

4. Slice into squares and enjoy!

5. Store in the fridge for 4-5 days or in the freezer for about 3 months.
