bites - chocolate fruit balls

By tinathorn

Ingredients

• 1 cup mixed raw nuts (I used 1/3 cup each of raw almonds, cashews & macadamias)
• 1/2 cup organic pitted chopped dates
• 1/2 cup dried chopped apricots
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 2 Tbsp raw cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 Tbsp fresh orange juice
• a couple of drops – 1/8 tsp of natural almond essence
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 cup desiccated coconut

Preparation

Step 1

Mix the coconut and cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside for rolling.
Put all other ingredients in a food processor, and slowly add in the orange juice if it doesn’t bind together completely.
Roll into small balls and coat with the coconut mixture.
Store in a sealed glass container in the fridge.
