Pecan Fat Bombs

I really like the Double Chocolate Brownie Larabar Bites and how they are made from only a few simple ingredients with no preservatives. Did you get that? No preservatives!!

A drawback ~ the high cost. Almost $5.00 for a 5.3 oz. bag.

Trying to replicate them, I found I didn't have any almonds on hand. I had walnuts and pecans. I decided to try making them with pecans only I wanted to add coconut oil as sometimes the Larabar Bites tend to be a little too dry. (Plus, I just love anything with coconut oil in it!)

My results were definitely not dry! In fact, they were quite moist. So moist that I ended up adding more pecans as I was processing them, hoping they would hold together better.

I formed them into bite-sized balls and coated them in coconut flour.

I put them in a covered container and refrigerated them.

They have a pronounced nutty pecan flavor. I will enjoy these.

Pecan Fat Bombs

1-1/2 c. pecans

3 dates, soaked in water and drained

2 T. raisins

2 T. coconut oil

1/2 T. cacao

Process in food processor until well blended. Form into bite-sized balls and coat with coconut flour. Store in refrigerator.

The great thing about these are that you can change them up a bit with each batch you make. Try using less coconut oil, or completely eliminate the raisins. Your tastes, your choice!
