No Bake Flavour Bombs

 

No Bake Flavour Bombs

I played around in the kitchen yesterday to come up with this recipe.  The name says it all - packed full of flavour!

These treats are ideal for those who have or are quitting sugar, or simply watching their waistline.  

All you need is about 10 - 15 minutes to pull this recipe off - no baking either!  So, get the ingredients & yourselves in the kitchen.    

A good friend of mine, Sarah, just picked up her cacao nibs yesterday - so Sarah, this one is especially for you. x

1 1/2c quick oats

1c shredded coconut

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

3/4 tsp mixed spice

1/2 lemon, freshly squeezed juice

 

Method:

Easy Peasy.

A great supply of healthy treats throughout the week at a moments notice.

 

Tip:

• If your mixture seems a little dry, add a bit of water.

• * Date Paste: combine 1/3c dates with hot water to cover.  Leave to soak for 15 minutes or place in the microwave for approx. 30 seconds.  Place in the blender and mix into a paste.  Done.

• For extra healthiness in this recipe, make your own almond meal with activated almonds♣.  All you need to do is follow the instructions below to make your own, then place them in a blender and mix until they are a fine consistency.

• ♣Activated nuts – why they are so good for you.  Usually nuts are full of enzyme inhibitors that prevent them from sprouting in dry environments.  Once you activate them, you trick the nut to start sprouting.  This is good because the sprouted form has nutrients that are far more easily absorbed by our bodies.

Activate nuts by soaking them over night.  Rinse them off and allow them to dry.
