Lemony Balls
A not so sweet snack for when you just want a sweet treat. This is my version of Lola Berry's Lemon Pie Bites...
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups shredded coconut
1/2 cup nuts
(cashews, walnuts or almonds - I've also used sunflower seeds to make these nut free for a friend)
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1 tbsp tahini 1 tbsp maple syrup,
coconut nectar or other sweetness
1/2 tsp vanilla extract or paste
zest of 1 lemon juice of 2 lemons
pinch of salt
extra shredded or desiccated coconut for rolling
To Prepare
1: Whiz all of the ingredients in your food processor or Nutribullet, until smooth.
2: Roll teaspoon size heaps into balls, it helps if your hands a slightly damp for this. Roll in coconut.
3: Place each ball on a flat tray or plate and into the fridge to set. Store in a container in the fridge or freezer.
