I don't know about anyone else but between isolation and Melbourne's cold weather I've been eating so much lately and it always seems to be the naughty stuff!
So on the weekend I decided this week was going to be all about willpower, planning meals and snacks for the week ahead.
On my meal plan this week are these delicious, healthy caramel bliss balls, which have been perfect for morning tea, afternoon tea or after dinner and I'm finding I'm not reaching for the naughty treats. Although I've had to freeze them in portions because between my family and I they wouldn't last long! In the morning I just take them out of the freezer to defrost ready for a quick snack.
INGREDIENTS
80g desiccated coconut
100g oats
170g Medjool dates (pitted)
2 tsp vanilla essence/extract/or paste (I use vanilla extract)
1 tblsp rice malt syrup
40g coconut oil soft (I use the liquid)
2 tblsp water (you can use coconut water)
extra desiccated coconut to roll balls in (optional)
METHOD
Add everything to your blender (except extra coconut) and blitz until all ingredients are finely chopped and come together (so you can roll into balls)
Roll into balls and coat in your extra desiccated coconut
**I used the Thermomix to make mine- add all the ingredients in the mixer bowl and blend on high for approximately 15secs/speed 8.
Enjoy you won't be able to stop at one!
