Ingredients - Version 1
2 cups shredded coconut, unsweetened
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/2 dried apples (I use my own homemade dehydrated apple peels)
6 or 7 pitted dates
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/4 cup honey
Ingredients - Version 2
Version 2 has a higher protein content, giving an ideal 2:1, carb to protein ratio.
2 cups shredded coconut, unsweetened
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 hemp hearts
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/2 cup dried apples
2 Tbsp chia seeds
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/4 cup honey
Directions
Blend coconut in food processor for 7 or 8 minutes, until it starts to become coconut butter, but isn’t quite there yet.
Add in the rest of the ingredients and blend until mixture is uniform.
Roll into balls, using approx. 1 Tbsp per ball.
Refrigerate overnight or bake at 350F for 12 minutes.
Enjoy!
