We are trying to eat more "raw" food as opposed to baked treats and these Bliss Balls certainly are a hit in our house. They keep best in the fridge and are very moreish so you have been warned!
Remember to use organic ingredient's where available as they don't contain nasty chemicals or preservatives like 220 which can be huge eczema and asthma irritants.
Fruit & Seed Bliss Balls
2 cups dried organic fruit (I used apricots & sultanas)
1 cup seeds of choice ( I used pepitas and sunflower seeds)
Organic desiccated coconut for rolling
1. Place fruit & seeds in TMX and grind on speed 9 for about 10 seconds
2. Remove mix and form balls using your hands
3. Roll in coconut and keep refrigerated (if you can stop yourself from eating them straight away!!)
No Thermomix - don't worry pulsing in a food processor/blender can achieve the same results you will just need to keep an eye on them and stop when you think the mixture is processed enough.
These can be fruit & nut balls if you can do nuts or a mix of all three would be nice too.
You can use any dried fruit – dates, cranberries etc and even add some carob powder for a chocolate fix
Yum just made and a big hit for afternoon tea with my two year old thanks!
