Nutrition Seed and cranberry balls

Seed and cranberry balls

SHARE

I saw this recipe a few weeks ago on a blog that I follow called “choosing raw“. I decided to give it a whirl because 1) I already had all the ingredients, 2) prep time took about 10 minutes and 3) I’m trying to come up with healthy and filling afternoon snacks so that I don’t graze from lunch to dinner. I was surprised to discover that I didn’t have raisins so I ended up using cranberries instead. It was very good but the balls are a bit crumbly so next time, I might use some kind of binder like peanut butter or a Tbsp of honey. If you want to see prettier pictures, check out her original post here.

Makes about 20 balls

  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1 1/3 cups raisins (or cranberries!)
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt (I omitted this as always)
  1. Mix all ingredients together in a food processor fitted with the S blade until mixture is getting uniform, and sticks together easily.
  2. Shape mixture into 1 inch balls by rolling with palms of hand. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, then snack away!
