I am not Vegan however saw a similar recipe while waiting at the hairdresser, and as they looked really good, I decided to try them - I think they used some sort of protein powder in the original however I used only what I had in the pantry!

I also liked the fact that there is little added sugar in this recipe, so it makes a wonderful small snack.

Mine turned out very lemony, however you can adjust the lemon and the maple syrup if you want it a bit sweeter.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes

¾ cup cashews - I mixed macadamia with cashew as did not have enough cashews

2 - 3 tbsp lemon juice

Extra shredded coconut, to roll

Process the cashews until they are a coarse mixture.

Add the shredded coconut, lemon juice, coconut oil, and maple syrup.
