INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups quinoa oat flakes
- 1 cup pitted dates, roughly chopped
- ½ cup of shredded coconut
- ½ cup of sultanas
- ½ cup of almonds
- 2 tbs organic peanut butter
- 1 tbs cocoa powder
- 2 tbs honey
- 4 tbs water
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 packet of Matcha Maiden MIX N MATCHA powder
RECIPE
- Put all ingredients apart from the water into a food processor and blend until it has the consistency of breadcrumbs.
- Add the water and continue to process until it becomes sticky enough to roll into balls.
- Use a tablespoon to measure the mixture and roll into firm balls.
- Roll into Matcha to make the outside look pretty and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
Note: You’ll need to make sure the peanut butter is a good quality, pesticide-free kind. Spiral Foods do a great one. If your guests are anaphylactic and cannot consume peanuts, you may like to use a different type of nut butter or cold-pressed organic coconut oil instead.
Quantity – Makes 15 balls
