Ingredients

1 cup cashew butter

1/4 cup brown rice syrup or coconut nectar 

1/2 cup gluten free old fashioned rolled oats

1/4 cup desiccated coconut

1/2 cup No Whey pea protein powder

1/2 cup desiccated coconut

Instructions

1. Place the cashew butter and sweetener of your choice  in a large bowl and use a spoon to mix them together a little.

2. Add the oats, 1/4 cup of desiccated coconut and 1/4 cup of the protein powder to the bowl (i.e. only add half of the protein powder to begin with).

3. Using a wooden spoon or a sturdy spatula, start combining all of the ingredients together. They should form a slightly sticky dough, with a consistency where it can be rolled into balls. Once the mixture has largely come together, you can test it by rolling a bit into a ball with your hands. If it’s too wet, add extra protein powder until it reaches the right consistency.

4. Roll heaped tablespoons of the dough into balls, and then roll in the extra desiccated coconut to coat.

5. Place the balls in the fridge to firm up a little. Leave them stored in the fridge in an airtight container, or alternatively freeze them for a longer life (where they should keep for about 3 months).
