Here is a quick and easy raw recipe for coconut lovers.
Put a cup of cashew nuts in a mini food processor, along with 2 tablespoons of room temperature (melted) virgin coconut oil, a good pinch of Himalayan or Utah Red high mineral salt, 1 teaspoon of pure real vanilla extract and 5 Medjool dates that have been cut into pieces. I put the setting on chop and then grind to blend well. You will end up with a thick gooey mixture. Take this mixture and transfer it into a bowl. Add dried coconut and a tablespoon of honey until it forms a dough. Roll the dough into small balls and then roll them into dried coconut. I used leftover coconut from making coconut milk. I dehydrate the leftover coconut by putting it on a cookie sheet and setting it in the oven with the light on but no heat on. If you put it in the dehydrator, the fan will blow it all inside your dehydrator. That is why I use the oven with the oven light on. You can use lemon extract instead of the vanilla or chocolate extract or any other extract that you like. Happy experimenting!
