😋Apricot Flapjack Energy Balls

Ingredients - Makes 20

1. 200g dried apricots roughly chopped
2. 100mk boiling water
3. 50g dried apple
4. 50g raisins
5. 100g rolled oats
6. 50g desiccated coconut
7. 150g almonds toasted (in the oven)
8. 1 tsp ground cinnamon
9. 1 tsp almond extract
10. 1 tbsp vanilla extract
11. Grated zest of lemon
12. 2 tbsp honey

Method:

1. Place the dried apricots in a heatproof bowl and pour on the boiling water. Cover & leave to soak for 10 minutes.
2. Put the remaining ingredients into a food processor. Drain the apricots in a sieve over a bowl to save the water. Add the apricots to the food processor and puse until well combined. If the mixture is too dry, add a little of the apricot water at a time & pulse again.
3. Divide the mixture into 20 balls, and roll each ball well so they are evenly sized.
4. Place on a tray & refrigerate for an hour before serving. Store the energy balls in the fridge & eat within 10 days.
5. TO FREEZE - freeze on a baking tray so they don't stick together, then transfer to a container. Defrost in the fridge.
