Prune Power Balls

These prune power balls rolled in coconut have a bit of history.  Back in the hippy days, they were the famous ‘Bliss Balls’ that we all made very frequently. We made them with what we now call healthy superfoods

Ingredients

  • 1 cup prunes
  • 1/2 cup almond butter
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup walnuts coarsely chopped
  • 3 tbsp coconut plus extra for rolling them in

Instructions

  • Cut the prunes into very small pieces. I do this instead of putting them in a food processor, but either way will work. Do it the way you enjoy.
  • Now put the cut-up prunes into a bowl and then mix in the almond butter and vanilla extract.
  • Then mix in the walnuts and coconut.
  • Place some more coconut in a small bowl on the side. Take about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and with your hands roll into a ball.
  • Then roll each ball into the coconut.
  • Now put them into a covered container and refrigerate them for 2 to 3 hours.
  • These prune power balls can be stored in the refrigerator for a few weeks.
