These little balls were such a hit at my last retreat, simply had to share them with more people. Apparently they taste like coconutty lamingtons! The guilt free kind of course ;) I make a big batch that normally lasts two weeks to snack on & enjoy. Feel free to add any other flavours & ingredients to bump them up.
I n g r e d i e n t s
⅓ cup coconut oil
2 ½ cups gluten free rolled oats
1 cup shredded coconut
extra shredded coconut to coat
5-6 dates (can add more for more sweetness / chewiness)
2 teaspoons coconut nectar / rice syrup / honey / maple syrup (can add more for desired taste)
2 tablespoons peanut butter
(¼ cup melted dark chocolate if adding a chocolate layer)
*the coconut balls are amazing by themselves as well, the peanut butter & chocolate add some flavour but can me omitted as well
M e t h o d
~ Add coconut oil, rolled oats, sweetener of choice & the shredded coconut to the food processor and mix until well combined
~ Divide mixture in half & add peanut butter to one half
~ Scoop out bite sized pieces with a spoon and roll into little balls
~ Toss each ball gently in the rest of the finely shredded coconut or melted dark chocolate until well coated
~ Place on a flat tray lined with baking paper, refrigerate for 30 minutes
~ Try not eat them all in one go ;)
Enjoy!
