3 cups of dried fruit (pitted dates, dried apricots, raisins, or dried fruit of choice) shredded coconut or finely chopped raw nuts
In food grinder, grind dried fruit until fine. Shape into small balls. Roll balls in shredded coconut, chopped nuts or both.
Tip
Dried fruits are rich in vitamins (A, B1, B2, B3, B6, and pantothenic acid) and minerals (calcium, iron, magnesium,
phosphorous, potassium, copper, manganese). They are also abundant in many anti-ageing and health protective phytochemcials. Due to the drying process they do lose some of their vitamin C content compared to fresh fruits.
