Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup ground almonds
  • 1 cups organic gluten-free oats
  • 1/2 cup mixed seeds I used a mix of sunflower, pumpkin and linseed and sesame
  • 1 cup dessicated coconut
  • Pinch pink salt
  • 1 tsp mixed spice
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 knob fresh ginger – grated
  • 1 tsp fresh turmeric grated or 11/2 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 ripe bananas mashed
  • 1/3 cup coconut honey or maple syrup/rice malt syrup
  • 1/2 cup melted coconut oil–I used Coconut Merchant
  • 2 tbsp almond butter

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to gas Mark 5/180C
  • Mix all the dry ingredients in a large bowl
  • Melt the coconut oil in a saucepan (low heat) and then pour into a separate bowl, add in the banana’s, coconut honey, almond butter, fresh ginger and turmeric–mix to combine everything.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix really well to combine everything.
  • Shape the mix into balls and pop them onto a lined baking tray (I rub with a little coconut to stop them sticking).
  • Bake for approx 20-25 minutes until slightly brown on the outside.
