No-Bake Snowballs

Slightly sweet, nutty little no-bake snowballs taste indulgent but are a pretty nutritionally sound snack, especially during the holidays. Full of cashews, coconut, agave, oats, and vanilla, they keep tummies satisfied without the sugar overload.

Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Servings: 15 snowballs
Calories: 59

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
  • 2/3 cup cashews, toasted if desired
  • 3 tablespoons agave syrup
  • 1 pinch vanilla bean powder
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 4 tablespoons desiccated coconut, divided

Instructions

  • In a food processor or blender, blitz the oats and cashews until you have a fine meal, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the agave syrup, vanilla, salt, and water and blitz again briefly, just until the mixture resembles wet cookie dough.
  • Dump the mixture into a bowl and stir in 2 tablespoons of the desiccated coconut. Shape into small balls. Place the remaining coconut on a plate and roll the balls to fully coat with coconut.
  • Stored in a tin or jar in the refrigerator, the no-bake snowballs will keep for about a week.
