A healthy alternative to traditional White Christmas. Gluten free, dairy free and delicious to boot.
WHITE CHRISTMAS BALLS
150 g desiccated coconut
120 g macadamias
50 g coconut oil
2 tbsp honey
1 tsp vanilla essence
40 g natural pistachios
40 g dried cranberries
Extra desiccated coconut to roll balls in
Chop the coconut, macadamias, coconut oil, honey, and vanilla essence at Speed 9 for 20 seconds.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Add the pistachios and cranberries and mix at Speed 4 for 15 seconds.
Use your hands to firmly press and shape the mixture into balls. Roll the balls lightly in coconut and place in the fridge to set.
Makes 12 balls.
