  • 1-2 tbsp extra dessicated coconut
  • ¼ cup matcha powder
  • 1 tbsp extra matcha podwer

Recipe Directions

Directions

  • In a food processor, chop up the almonds and walnuts until fine.
  • Add in the oats, the ½ cup coconut, and ¼ cup matcha powder and whizz together until combined.
  • Prepare the dates by soaking them in warm water and drain out the water. Add in the dates, coconut oil, and sweetener. Whizz again until the mixture clumps together. If the mixture does not clump together, then it is too dry, so try adding a little more coconut oil or sweetener.
  • Put mixture into fridge for 30 minutes to harden slightly.
  • Take mixture out and roll into balls.
  • To make matcha coconut coating: mix the extra matcha powder with the extra desiccated coconut until the coconut turns green.
  • Roll your balls in the matcha coconut mixture.
  • Store in the freezer to attain truffle-like texture.
