Snack Recipes: Liam approved!

Nut butter/coconut balls

I either buy the artisana raw organic butters (macadamia is his favorite) or grind my own raw organic nuts at home.
 Mix in some good quality coconut oil.
 Roll in to balls 
Place on parchment paper
 Sprinkle with sea salt (pink Himalayan is my favorite)
 Freeze
 *You can also roll these in raw cacao, cinnamon etc. Or if you don't have yeast issues you can dip them in chocolate, drizzle with a safe caramel etc.
