Chocolate Orange Bliss Balls (Gluten, dairy and nut free)

Ingredients:

150g medjool dates (pitted)

75g sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds

25g desiccated coconut (plus extra for rolling)

Zest of 1 orange

Juice of 1/2 an orange

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Pinch of ground nutmeg

2 tbsp cocoa powder

1 tbsp coconut oil

Pinch of sea salt

Method:

Place your sunflower seeds into a food processor and blitz until they have broken down and have a flour-like texture.

Add in remaining dry ingredients and blend until fully combined - it should come together to make a sticky paste.

Pour in your juice and coconut oil and blend until smooth. Using your hands, roll about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll into bite-sized balls.

Roll each ball in extra desiccated coconut for a festive touch.

Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up, then eat and enjoy!
