INGREDIENTS – makes about 25
- 3 cups organic dried apple rings (sulphur free) or 1 cup of stoned medjool dates
- 1 cup organic dried apricots (sulphur free)
- ¼ tsp vanilla essence
- 1 lemon, zested, 1 tsp reserved
- ½ lemon, juiced
- ¼ cup coconut oil (or less)
- 1 cup finely shredded coconut organic not sulphites
- A pinch of sea salt
INSTRUCTIONS
- Add the apple rings, apricots, vanilla, lemon juice, lemon zest (reserving 1 teaspoon for later), and coconut oil to a food processor. Process on high until thoroughly combined and sticky, about 1-2 minutes. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the shredded coconut, sea salt, and reserved lemon zest and stir to combine.
- Using your hands, form the apple mixture into small balls, about the size of 2 tablespoons, and roll through the coconut mixture before placing on a plate. Once all of your “bites” are formed, place them in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to harden. Keep refrigerated before serving, or they will be tacky
