Recipe's preparation

  1. Add flaxseeds to Closed lid"Closed lid" MC on, mill 15 seconds, speed 9.

  2. Add cereals, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, pepitas, goji berries, hulled tahini and salt to the Closed lid"Closed lid" - MC on, 5 seconds, speed 7.

  3. Add dessicated coconut, puffed quinoa, mesquite powder and carob powder to the Closed lid"Closed lid" - MC on, 5 secconds, speed 3, on Counter-clockwise operation"Counter-clockwise operation"

  4. Add maple syrup, coconut oil, 1 tbsp water and dates to Closed lid"Closed lid" MC on, 5 seconds, speed 8 (or stop sooner if the mixture comes together quicker)

  5. Test mixture by squeezing a small portion in your hand, if it holds together quite well you can continue to the next step. If you feel it needs a touch more moisture, you can add a tablespoon of the date water leftover from soaking.

  6. Tip mixture into another bowl/jug and with wet hands either roll into small to medium size balls as pictured, or press into the Thermomix snack bar moulds. If your hands become sticky, wet them again. If you roll into balls, you can then roll again into more coconut, but this is optional. Some people do this in a bowl, others put the coconut and protein balls into a zip lock bag to make it quicker.

  7. Refridgerate or place into the freezer.

Tip

The cereals in this recipe are optional. Not everyone eats prepackaged cereals.

If you prefer you can omit them and replace with extra seeds and puffed quinoa. Or if you can have nuts you can replace the cereal with your choice of nuts (almonds, cashews, brazil nuts)

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 6 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 6
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
