Bite Size Foot Balls





This recipe was adapted from Averie Cooks, although because I changed many ingredients I call it foot balls (or soccer in US). 


Ingredients:
1 cup cashews (raw)
1 cup almond flour
2/3 cup shredded coconut or coconut flakes
2 tbsp agave nectar
1 tbsp coconut oil (for binding)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 lemon (zest and juice)
1/4 chocolate chips


In a food processor grind cashews, add coconut and almond flour and pulse. 
Add all the remaining ingredients, pulse to mix. 
Transfer the mixture into a mixing bowl, add chocolate chips, mix and form a small balls. Decorate each ball with more chocolate chips to resemble a foot ball (soccer in US). 
Refrigerate for 1-2 hours and enjoy.




If  you have patience, leave it overnight in the refrigerator to develop the flavor: lemon and coconut will blend into fantastic not too sweet taste tickle. 


See you,
Marina
