Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 Oranges You can also swap for clementines!
  • ½ Cup Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 1 Teaspoon Flaky Sea Salt

Instructions
 

  • Start by peeling the oranges and breaking apart the slices. Place them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet or large plate.
  • Next, melt dark chocolate chips in 15 second increments in the microwave. (You can also use a double boiler.) Add a teaspoon of coconut oil to thin out the chocolate if needed.
  • Dip half of each orange slice into the melted chocolate. Hold the slice above the bowl to allow excess chocolate to drip off. Place on the parchment paper and repeat until all of the orange slices are coated.
  • Top with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. Place the orange slices in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to set. Enjoy!

Expert Tips

  • Be careful when peeling the orange, if the juice comes out, the chocolate won't stick well.
  • Let the chocolate cool for a few minutes before dipping the orange slices.
  • Add a teaspoon of coconut oil to the chocolate for a thinner and smoother consistency.
  • Dip the slices halfway for a beautiful color contrast. (It also keeps your hands from getting dirty!)
  • Place the oranges on a parchment paper lined baking sheet for easy transfer into the refrigerator. (This will also prevent sticking.)
  • Pre-peel all of the oranges before dipping in chocolate for a smoother process.
