Apricot balls

Ingre­di­ents for approx. 18 balls:

• 180g dried orga­nic apricots
• 70g Almonds
• 40g Orga­nic coco­nut flakes
• 3 tsp gra­ted oran­ge peel
• 1/2 tsp fine­ly gra­ted ginger
• 1 tbsp oran­ge juice
• 1/2 tsp Cin­na­mon
• 4 tbsp crus­hed almonds and or Coco­nut flakes for rolling

Pre­pa­ra­ti­on:

Grind the almonds in a food pro­ces­sor until they are small but still a litt­le chun­ky. Emp­ty the con­tai­ner and also chop the dried apri­cots in the food pro­ces­sor.
Add the remai­ning ingre­di­ents (apart from the 4 tab­les­poons of crus­hed almonds and/or coco­nut flakes) to the food pro­ces­sor with the apri­cots. Con­ti­nue pro­ces­sing until the mix­tu­re holds tog­e­ther and forms a sti­cky mass.
Roll small balls out of the mix­tu­re by hand, pos­si­bly wet­ting your hands with a litt­le water so that they don’t stick too much.
Roll each ball in the crus­hed almonds and/or desic­ca­ted coco­nut to coat.

Arran­ge on a pla­te and enjoy!
