Salted Caramel Bliss Balls

13 June 2016

When your go-to snack tastes just like dessert you know you’ve created a winning recipe! Tahini is my secret ingredient to making anything salted caramel – add a touch of sea salt and some cinnamon and you have the perfect combination of salty and sweet. Who knew something so delicious could be so healthy!?

Ingredients

Makes: 12

  • 1 cup cashews
  • 1/2 cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
  • 1-2 tbsp tahini
  • 8-10 pitted medjool dates
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • Generous pinch of sea salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Desiccated coconut or sesame seeds to coat.

 

Method

  1. Add cashews, pepitas, tahini, dates, coconut flour, sea salt and cinnamon to a food processor.
  2. Process for 3-4 minutes until the mixture comes together.
  3. Roll tablespoons of the mixture into balls and roll in sesame seeds/desiccated coconut to coat.
  4. Place in the freezer for an hour to set. Store in fridge or freezer.

Notes:

  • If the mixture comes out too oily, add a touch more coconut flour until it reaches desired consistency.
  • Adjust the number of dates depending on your own sweetness preferences.
