Method

  1. Add the cranberries along with the Truvia and water to a pan and stir together. Heat up the mixture and bring to a simmer until the mixture thickens.
  2. Take the pan aside and leave to cool completely.
  3. Pre heat the oven to 180ºC (355F).
  4. In a bowl mix together the chocolate whey, coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and Truvia for the sponge ingredients.
  5. Add in the apple puree, egg whites and almond milk and mix to form a thick chocolate batter. Pour the batter into 4 silicone muffin moulds and bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes.
  6. Leave the muffins to cool completely.
  7. Next, make the protein custard by mixing together the whey, custard powder and milk.
  8. Now layer the trifles by adding a quarter of the cranberry mixture to the bottom of two wine glasses.
  9. Break up the muffins into small pieces and place half into both wine glasses on top of the cranberry mixture.
  10. Top the muffin layers with half of the custard mixture.
  11. Repeat the cranberry layer, muffin layer and custard layer in each glass.
  12. Next mix together the Greek yogurt and whey in a bowl and put into a silicone piping bag and pipe onto the top of both trifles.
  13. Finally, sprinkle with a little desiccated coconut to finish!
