Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a food processor, combine the dried apricots, almonds, shredded coconut, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Pulse the mixture until it forms a sticky dough-like consistency.
-
Using your hands, roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If the mixture is too sticky, you can lightly wet your hands with water to make it easier to roll.
-
Pour some additional shredded coconut onto a plate. Roll each apricot nut ball in the coconut until it's lightly coated.
-
Place the coated balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill the Apricot Nut Balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
-
Once chilled, these delightful treats are ready to be enjoyed. Serve them on a platter for guests or keep them in an airtight container for a convenient snack throughout the week.
