Ingredients
Scale
Soak Ingredients
- 10–15 Pitted Dates
- 1 1/2 Cups Raw Cashews
- Enough Water to cover for Soak (but will be drained off)
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 Cups Walnuts
- 1 1/2 Cups Macadamia Nuts
- 1 1/2 Cups Unsweetened Coconut
- 1/2 Cup Coconut Flour + 1/4 Cup extra for Dusting
- 1 1/2 teaspoon Salt
Wet/Puree Ingredients
- 1 Cup Brown Rice Syrup or Pure Maple Syrup
- 1/3 Cup Agave Nectar
- 1/4 Cup Coconut Oil
- 4 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
Mix In
Instructions
- Line a Tray or Cookie Sheet with Wax Paper & Set Aside
- Place the Pitted Dates & Cashews in a medium bowl and add just enough water to cover them. Let them soak while you prepare your other ingredients (about 10-15 min).
- In your Food Processor, add the Dry Ingredients (Mac Nuts, Walnuts, Coconut, Coconut Flour & Salt). Pulse until well finely ground and blended, then empty the mixture out into a large bowl.
- Add your bag of Chocolate Chips and mix together.
- In your Food Processor, add the Wet Ingredients (Brown Rice Syrup, Agave Syrup, Coconut Oil, Vanilla). Drain your soaked ingredients well and add them to the Food Processor. Blend well until the mixture is completely pureed. Add this wet mixture to your large bowl and mix well with a spatula.
- Add both boxes of Cereal to the mixture and stir until every piece is evenly coated.
- Using a large Cookie Scoop (aka meatball scoop), scoop ‘balls’ of mixture onto the wax paper lined tray.
- Using a basting brush, Dust the tops of the balls with Coconut Flour. This will help them not to be so sticky.
- Although you can eat these right away, they hold together much better after chilling. Place the tray into the fridge for approx. 1 hour.
- Cover & Store in the fridge until serving.
Notes
- You can also swap out the nuts for whatever nuts or seeds you’re not allergic to.
- If you swap out the Brown Rice Syrup for Maple Syrup, be sure to add a little more Coconut Flour to help thicken the mixture.
