Raw Carob Candies


Description

It is this time of the year when both adults and children have sweet treats more often. It is absolutely fine, but you can also have your sweet bites while sticking to healthy eating. We do not need the over-stimulation and weight gaining side effects of the conventional sugary/oily candies and cakes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup walnuts
  • 1 cup dates
  • pinch of sea salt
  • 2 handfuls of shredded coconut
  • 2tbsp agave syrup or honey
  • 3tbsp (big spoonfuls) carob powder

Instructions

  1. Place nuts with salt in your food processor and process until they become small and crumbly.
  2. Add dates to this sugar-free candy recipe and process until the mixture sticks together and the dates are well processed.
  3.  Add the remaining ingredients and process until the mixture turns a lovely dark chocolaty brown. I like to process it until it becomes buttery. However, you can also leave a bit more air between the small bits.
  4. Dump the mixture into a bowl and start forming candy balls or roll it with rolling-pin and cut squares. You can refrigerate it for a couple of hours before slicing.
  5. Store in fridge.
