My favorite uses of doTerra essential oils in edibles are:
- Citrus oils (Grapefruit, Lemon, Lime, Slim & Sassy (not specifically citrus), Wild Orange) in my sparkling water
- Cardamom and cinnamon in coffee-- neutralizes acidity & adds wonderful flavor!
- Ginger (or others-- get creative!) in my smoothies
- Lavender in homemade chocolates
- Lemon in my kale chips and hummus
- Lime for my pico de gallo and guacamole
- OnGuard infused into my sliced apples (also Wild Orange)
- Oregano anytime I don't have the dried herb-- **only use a toothpick amount!!!! Just one drop creates an overdose of oregano flavor--not good.**
- Peppermint in my brownies..... peppermint black bean brownies! Also quickly rubbed on roof of mouth as a breath mint.
Black Bean Peppermint Brownies
15oz can black beans (drained & rinsed)
2 large eggs (or flax-eggs)
1/4 cup cocoa powder
2/3 cup honey
1/3 cup coconut oil
1/2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
4 drops peppermint EO
3/4 cup chocolate chips.
Preheat oven to 350°. Blend all ingredients (except choc chips) until smooth. Pour batter into greased 8x8in pan and stir in 1/2 cup choc chips. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 choc chips on top. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean. Let cool (and store) in fridge, then cut into pieces.
**You might want to try using parchment paper to line the pan before greasing it with coconut oil to avoid sticking/crumbling brownies when cutting them out of the pan.

Wild Orange Yogurt Fruit Dip
1 cup Greek yogurt**
1 Tbsp raw honey
2-3 drops Wild Orange EO
Mix ingredients together. Adjust honey and EO as desired. Serve with fresh fruit. Enjoy!
**I served an adjusted vegan version with Kite Hill's almond milk yogurt, raw blue agave and Wild Orange EO. I personally like the original better but it's not vegan.
