Description
A superfood tasty and healthy snack
Ingredients
- 1 heaping cup coconut flakes
- 2 tablespoons macadamia butter
- 2 scoops of Turmeric Tonic (Further Food) OR you can use 1 teaspoon of this mix: turmeric + cinnamon + nutmeg + ginger + a tiny bit of black pepper (to activate the curcumin in turmeric)
- 1 tsp full fat coconut milk
- extra shredded coconut or/and ground macadamia (for topping)
Instructions
- Add the coconut flakes to a high speed blender or food processor and mix on high until the coconut starts to get sticky and oily. You may have to scrap the edged a few times.
- Mix the 2 scoops of turmeric tonic with the one teaspoon of coconut milk until you get a paste (the coconut milk is purely used to dissolve the turmeric tonic powder – I added this step because I used a blender that is very tall and just throwing the turmeric powder in there would had been a waste, if you have a normal food processor you can just add the powder to the coconut).
- Add the turmeric paste and the macadamia butter to the blender and pulse until all mixed (you may have to scrape the walls).
- Put the mixture in the fridge for about 30 minutes, take out and shape into small balls (it makes about 6, 7 balls) and cover in shredded coconut.
- Store in an air tight glass container in the fridge.
Notes
This quantity makes 6, 7 small balls, just double or triple quantities for more portions. If you triple, there is no need to add 6 scoops of turmeric tonic, you can add about three, four and you will be fine. You can also make a big batch and freeze them.
