Recipe's preparation

  1. Method:

    1. Place all the ingredients, except for the dessicated coconut, into the TM bowl and process for 10 seconds/speed 7, or until mixture appears crumbly.
    2. Take a heaped tablespoon of the mixture and form into a ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
    3. Roll the balls in the desiccated coconut and store in the fridge until ready to serve.

    Makes 16

Tip

TIP:

To toast the oats, heat a frypan over med-high heat and add oats, stirring until lightly browned. Alternatively, you can weigh them into the TM bowl and toast for 5-6 minutes/varoma/speed 1, then continue with the recipe.

Substitute the desiccated coconut and coat the protein balls with crushed nuts, cocoa or goji berries instead.

Check the dates, as occasionally you can find traces of pits.

    Really delicious and simple to make.  We didnt have chia so left it out.  As previously mentioned - I'm excited to have another school friendly food.  I used your instructions to toast the oats and that worked beautifully.  Thanks again.

    Do these have to be stored in the fridge or a container in the pantry ?

    Very tasty. My 2 1/2 yo son thoroughly enjoyed these "power" balls

    These are tasty!  I made smaller one's and got about 28 out of them.  They are good because there are no nuts and can go in the kids lunch boxes.
