Lemon Coconut Bliss Bites
Sweet and tarty lemon coconut energy bliss bites are on top of our favourite snack list, not only for the kids but for us adults as well! These treats are great for kicking bad sugar to the kerb, and make snacking on the good stuff fun. They're moist, chewy and packed with healthy ingredients like nuts, dates and coconut and best of all they are super easy to make.
Prep Time: 5 mins / Yields: 12 bites / Recipe source: Eat with clarity - www.eatwithclarity.com
Ingredients:
1 cup cashews
1 cup desiccated coconut
7 dates, pitted
1-2 tbsp maple syrup
Juice from 1-2 lemons
Zest from 1 lemon
1 tsp vanilla extract or essence
Instructions:
