These bite-sized treats are so good anytime of the year. They are my go to when I am in a time crunch; they take less than an hour to make (and eat)! Lemon Meltaways have a cheesecake texture. They have an amazing punch of lemon flavour and gently sweetened with honey. They need to be kept in the freezer and served frozen, they will melt once they are at room temperature.
They are full of good fat from coconut oil can help prevent endurance athletes from “hitting the wall”, after the 3 hours workout mark. The raw cashews have a healthy dose of magnesium, this will help athlete’s replenish their electrolyte stores and help restless legs.
