These healthy treats can be made with most good food processors but instructions are for Thermomix. Please adjust according to what food processor you use.
Ingredients
50g rolled oats (replace with gluten free grain like quinoa flakes if oats cannot be tolerated)
50g pecan or other nut
150g Medjool dates, pitted
2 tbsp mesquite flour
1 tbsp raw cacao
2 tbsp black chia seeds
1 cup (50g) popcorn (preferably just lightly salted, no butter)
2 tbsp flaked almonds, if desired
2 tbsp of Agave Syrup (or Brown Rice Syrup) if/as needed
Instructions
Place rolled oats and pecan nuts in TMX bowl and blitz on Speed 5 for 3 seconds only. This should produce a rough meal of oats and nuts.
Place pitted dates into TMX bowl and process on Speed 4 for 3 seconds.
Add mesquite, cacao and chia to TMX and process on Speed 4 for another 3 seconds.
Add popcorn, lightly crushed by hand into the TMX bowl (and flaked almonds if using) and give one shot of Turbo to combine.
Test mixture by taking a small amount and squeezing together. If the mixture holds together, you can finish here.
If the mixture does not hold together, add the Agave Syrup a tablespoon at a time until the mixture does hold well. Use Speed 2 for a few seconds to blend the syrup with each addition.
Roll mixture into balls of preferred size and store in fridge. The popcorn will unfortunately start to get a little soft but my bet is that it won't last that long :)
