Remember
THIS post from last week? Basically, I am tired of paying big money for raw Lara Bars - my favorite convenience food - and finally attempted to make them at home. Today, I had a free 15 minute stretch to call my own and I produced these brilliant little raw fruit and nut balls. How did I do it? I took a handful of dates, raisins, nuts and some coconut powder and chopped them into submission. Then I kneaded the mass of sticky nutty goo into a thick blob and rolled them into little balls. The final touch? Coat the balls in raw coconut powder. They look like little truffles. They were a huge hit with my Easter house guests and all of our children. Here are some photos of the final product. Delicious!
HERE are some recipes if you'd like to try this at home.
The balls above were made with:
Dates
Raisins
Cashews
Coconut Powder

Yum! Those do look tasty. I did something similar once but rolled them in raw golden flax seed. Also quite yummy.
