Homemade Coconut-Almond Larabar Balls


Larabars are loved for their excellent flavors, natural ingredients, and lack of allergen foods like wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, peanuts, and gluten. They can be expensive to buy and even expensive to make homemade, but Costco sells pitted dates and almonds for much cheaper than your smaller grocery stores which makes homemade Larabar balls very affordable, and I think that makes everything tastes better


What you need:

  1.  1 cup Baker's sweetened coconut 
  2. 1/2 cup pitted dates, and
  3.  1/2 cup sliced almonds. 



What you do: 
  1. Put all ingredients into processor until blended. TIP: scrape the sides in between blending and tilt food processor if it sticks to sides too often.
  2. Roll into balls.




                                                                        Do a hilarious stand up comedy routine while it blends.

and then again.







Take the blade out and the kids can roll the balls straight from the processor container.

            Explain the secret master technique for the perfect rolled cookie balls and watch your pupils shine.





                                  

Even when they were all made and he was chowing down on his 4th cookie ball, he was still practicing the special rolling technique, well I guess it's not a secret anymore.
