Ingredients
100g
Raisins
Toppings (optional)
Cacao powder
Instructions
Place the figs into a large bowl and cover with just boiled water. Allow the figs to rehydrate in the water for 5 minutes before draining thoroughly.
Pulse the almonds and pecan nuts in a high speed food processor until they resemble rough bread crumbs. Add the rehydrated figs, raisins, cranberries, orange peel and spices and pulse again until everything has come together to create a nice sticky dough.
Use your hands to form tbsp sized chunks of the mixture into 12 nice round balls, before rolling in the topping of your choice (if using).
Place the balls in the fridge for an hour to firm up before serving.
