For approx. 24 balls

Ingredients:

• 100g dried apricots soaked
  
• 200g Cashews roasted
  
• 100g unsweetened coconut flakes
  
• 1 pinch of salt
  
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  
• Zest of one organic lemon
  
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1-2 tbsp maple syrup, more or less to taste
• Optional: unsweetened cocoa powder, 50 g roasted almonds
  

Decoration: Choco Almonds, Cashews chopped, grated coconut, dried berries

Preperation: Soak the apricot pieces in water for at least 30 minutes. Roast the nuts briefly in the oven. Caution: Turn the cashew nuts as they burn easily.

Base dough: Drain the soaking water from the apricots. First put the cashew nuts, coconut flakes, salt and coconut oil in a food processor. The nuts should be finely chopped. Add the lemon juice, zest, apricots and maple syrup. Puree everything until you have a sticky but not too moist mixture. This takes a while and requires repeated stirring. Now you can form balls from the mixture and chill them (or even freeze them). Coat some of the balls with melted chocolate.
