Star Recipe: Raw Date and coconut balls




Raw Date and coconut balls

@ By Franz!

Healthier than traditional cookies, these little treats are easy to make, too!
Feel free to add in dried fruits and nuts of your choice for variation!

Makes about 24 cookies

Prep Time: 5 minutes Total Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients:
1 cup Mejool Dates
1/2 cup finely shredded coconut, plus more for coating (I used the powdered coconut flour from Tesco)
1/2 cup plain oat biscuits - I used Paterson oat cakes with olive oil
1/4 cup mixed dried fruit (sultanas etc) from the supermarket
3 Tablespoons of maple syrup (or agave nectar)

Preparation:
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Mix all of the ingredients until well combined. I used my food processor for that. Form into 1 " balls and roll each in shredded coconut, placing on the prepared sheet as you work until all of the "dough" is used up. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and enjoy!
Notes: these balls are very sweet. You can save some money and definitely use much less maple syrup (although I suppose it keeps together all the bits).

Love Smoothies?

How to publish a book with Amazon Create Space

How do you self publish a book? I am asked this question quite often now, soI have decided to put my little experience in writing to help you out. Here is the link you want: https://www.createspace.com/ I worked out lots of information after signing as much of the info only comes out after having a title etc and going through the whole process.
