Coconut Fruit Balls image

Healthy little treats for people with sweet tooths. I've made these during the holiday season to bring to functions and was enjoyed by all. I'm really finicky on getting all the dried fruit the same size so it took me a little longer then 20 mins to put this recipe together.

1/2 cup dried apricot, finely chopped
1/2 cup dried dates, finely chopped

1/2 cup desiccated coconut

Steps:

  • Finely chopped sultanas, dates and apricots and place them in a mixing bowl. Mix well.

I'm not a fan of dried fruit, but I still liked these coconut fruit balls. The coconut flavor is really strong and it masks the taste of the dried fruit.

I'm allergic to coconut, but I was still able to enjoy these coconut fruit balls. I just used almond flour instead of shredded coconut.

These coconut fruit balls were a bit dry. I think I should have added more condensed milk or butter.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but I actually really liked these coconut fruit balls. They're not too sweet and the dried fruit adds a nice tartness.

These coconut fruit balls were delicious! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of dried fruit. I used raisins, but I think cranberries or apricots would be better.

I had a hard time getting the coconut fruit balls to hold together. I think I might have needed to use more condensed milk.

These coconut fruit balls were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think next time I'll use less condensed milk.
