4 handfuls dried fruit ( I used 3 handfuls of apricots, 1 handful of cranberries)
2 handfuls of nuts (I used almonds)
1 cup desiccated coconut (I used coconut chips and ran them through the food processor)
a pinch of salt
water
combine dried fruit, nuts, 1/3 cup of the coconut and salt in a food processor until chopped well. Add a tablespoon of water at a time until the mixture forms a moist but rough dough and consistency that you like. i like mine a little chunky.
i use my measuring tablespoon to portion with a spoon to form into a ball but you can do it however you see fit. roll them in coconut and place in a single layer on a cookie sheet. freeze until solid and then transfer to a freezer safe container.
these really remind me of larabars which are pretty expensive. i think i will play with the combinations of nuts and fruits to try and replicate some of the larabar flavor combinations.
