This is one of the first recipes I wrote, and it is still a favourite. I make these often as they’ll last for months. I am always glad to see them in the pantry in the afternoon when I feel like something sweet. Leave out the nuts if you have allergies to them.

Yields1 Serving
 1 cup puffed millet, quinoa or rice
 sesame seeds
 ⅓ cup sunflower seeds
 ½ cup desiccated coconut (optional)
 1 cup mixed nuts like almonds, cashews, brazil nuts, hazelnuts, macadamias, unsalted, chopped
 1 cup sulphur-free dried fruit, like apricots, apple, peaches, pear, chopped
 ¾ cup tahini
 ¾ cup rice syrup or raw honey
 1 cup either sesame seeds or coconut, to coat
1

Place the seeds and nuts in a food processer and blitz, keeping it chunky. Put them into a bowl.

3

Next, blitz the dried fruit and add to the seeds and nuts.

5

Add the millet and coconut to the bowl and mix everything together with your hands.

7

Put the mixture back into the food processor and gradually add the tahini and syrup while the motor is running. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness to your liking.

9

Using wet hands, take about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll into a ball, then coat in sesame seeds.

11

Repeat until you’ve used all of the mixture.

13

Store the balls in an airtight container.
