I confess, I have gone a little crazy with the Bliss Balls this week. I think I've made four versions this week; I'm a little obsessed. But now that I've created this nut-free version, I think I'm done for a while. :)
I posted the recipe for a Coconut version on my facebook page, which prompted several people to ask for a nut-free version. So here it is! Made with dried dates and apricots, I think it's my new favourite.
I've included a picture of the coconut and apricots that I buy. They both have no added sulfur or preservatives. I buy them online from www.mypaleo.com.au.
