  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp smooth nut butter

  • Place nuts in a bowl of a food processor with a knife blade and blitz for 10 seconds.
  • Add prunes, chia, cocoa and nut butter and blend until smooth.
  • Add a small amount of coconut oil, a few drops at a time, until the mixture is sticky, and holds its shape when you roll a small amount between your fingers.
  • Take a tablespoon (15mL) of the mixture and roll into a ball. Continue creating balls until the mixture is all gone.
  • Place the coconut onto a small plate and roll balls into the coconut, to coat.
