Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes optional
  • 1 cup roasted salted cashews 140 grams
  • 2 cups dried apricots 300 grams
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil melted

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. If using coconut flakes, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spread the coconut flakes on a baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 3-6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Watch closely, as they can burn quickly.
  2. Place the cashews in a large food processor and process until crumbly and broken down. Add the dried apricots and process until well mixed and the mixture begins to form a sticky dough.
  3. With the food processor running, stream in the coconut oil. Process until the mixture forms a ball.
  4. Use a 1-tablespoon measuring spoon to scoop out the mixture, then roll into balls. Roll the balls in toasted coconut, if using, and place onto a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet. Chill for 1 hour or so until they are no longer sticky, then place into an airtight container to store in the refrigerator.
  5. DEVOUR!
