RAW Nutty Fig Ballz

I thought I would post an easy recipe I came up with a while back for my

good friend E-Cutie, after she emailed me asking when I was going to update my blog. I quickly whipped these babies up to keep E-Cutie happy! She has been such a loving and very supportive friend.  The results; fast, easy and tasty RAW fig balls…mmmmm.

Ingredients
Makes 9 large balls
- 1 cup of dried figs (soaked for about 5 minutes then rinse and drain)
- 1 cup of raw walnuts
- 1/4 cup of raw almonds
- 1/4 cup of raisins
- 4 plump dates
- 3/4 teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg
- 2 teaspoons of carob powder
- pinch-o-sea salt

Directions
Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until mixture turns into a sticky paste.
Roll into balls.
*Optional: Roll balls in shredded unsweetened coconut.

Place them in the fridge for 2 hours to firm up or in the freezer for about 15 minutes.
You can of course eat them immediately – they will be soft.

*Note: These store well in the freezer, but will also keep in the fridge for a few days
