makes roughly 12 balls

I was trying to make almond butter but it just wasn’t the right consistency, so I decided to add carob, and then all these other wonderful things….rawcolate balls were born.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup almonds
  • 1 tablespoon flax oil
  • 1 tablespoon carob chips
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • ⅛ cup raisins
  • ¼ cup sunflower seeds
  • ¼ cup flax seeds
  • 1½ tablespoons flax powder

Preparation

Start by chopping almonds in a food processor until finely ground, add flax oil and salt, continue to mix. Add in carob chips, process until they are smooth. Transfer to dish, fold in sunflower seeds, flax seeds, raisins and flax powder. Roll into small balls and place on a plate in the fridge. Once they set, they are ready to eat! Enjoy

These measurements are APPROXIMATE, as I did not measure anything. You may need more or less nuts depending on how well it is staying together.

Now do you always soak your nuts before you make your treats of foods?

I usually do but since I was attempting to make almon butter originally and do not have a dehydrator, I opted for unsoaked. I suppose soaked would work just as well as long as they were dry.
