Servings: 17 Balls
Calories: 85kcal
Equipment
- 1 Food Processor (or high speed blender)
Ingredients
- 1 cup (160g) Sultanas (or raisins)
- 1 tablespoon Chia Seeds *If using an Australian tablespoon reduce this to 3 teaspoons.
- ½ cup Boiling Water
- 5 Wheat biscuits (weebix, weetabix etc) (75g if using broken biscuits / crumbs)
- ¾ cup (60g) Desiccated Coconut
- 4 tbsp Cocoa Powder *If using an Australian tablespoon reduce this to 3 tbsps.
Instructions
- Add the sultanas and chia seeds to a bowl with boiling water. Allow to soak for 5-10 minutes. Drain, reserving the water.
- Place the sultanas and chia seeds, along with the rest of the ingredients into a food processor. Blend on high until thoroughly combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl if needed.
- If the mixture is too dry to roll into balls, slowly add the reserved water 1 teaspoon at a time until the mixture comes together and you can form balls. If the mixture is too wet, add a little more coconut or weetbix.
- Roll mixture into balls. You can make them any size, I usually make tablespoon-sized balls.
