Quick & Easy Holiday Strawberry Bites Vegan
A nutritious soft combination of strawberries, dates, coconut flour and nuts. Just a small amount of chocolate to make them even more irresistible. So tasty, comfort food!
Ingredients
For the strawberry balls
- 1 cup strawberries heaping cup, fresh or frozen
- ¼ cup raspberries fresh or frozen
- 1½ cups raw cashews
- ½ cup raw almonds
- 10 regular pitted dates soaked
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- 1 tbsp coconut shreds
For decoration
- ground raw cashews to roll the balls
- 2 oz dark chocolate dairy-free, optional
- 1½ tsp melted coconut oil / optional
Instructions
- Place the cashews and almonds in a food processor until finely chopped.
- Add the other ingredients in the processor as well and pulse for several minutes until everything is well mixed together. (If you use frozen fruits, thaw them before chopping.)
- Take about a full teaspoon of the strawberry mixture and roll it into small balls.
- Roll each ball in roughly chopped raw cashews.
- Optional: melt the dark chocolate and stir in the coconut oil. Drizzle melted chocolate over the balls or roll them entirely in the chocolate.
- Store in the refrigerator.
Notes
- You can soak the dates in warm water for 10-15 mins to chop them easily.
- If you use frozen fruits, as I did, make sure you thaw them before chopping.
