Quick cashew truffles

This recipe is:

• Gluten free
• Dairy free
• Egg free
• Yeast free

Around Christmas time, parties and other excuses, it's always handy to have some gluten free sweeties handy, and these are quick and easy to make. And with the cashew content, they're not little balls of sugar like they might otherwise be.

Oh, and did I mention how quick they are? :)

Gluten free cashew truffles


100g unsalted cashews
8 pitted dates
Desiccated coconut
Water

Put the cashews and dates into a chopper/blender with 25ml of water and blend. Add water if the mix gets too thick. Once smooth(ish), roll into balls in your hands (or the kids) and toss in the coconut. Cool in the fridge.

If the mixture is too sticky to work you can cool it a bit first.

There, gluten free cashew truffles. Told you it was quick.
