Ingredients

1 ½ cups roasted almonds
250 grams dried apricot
100 grams sultanas
170 grams desiccated coconut
1 x can (395 gram) condensed milk
extra desiccated coconut

Notes from Rouba

For a variation, swap the roasted almonds with pistachio and add 1-2 drops of green food colouring.
wet your hands when rolling the mixture into round balls, this will make the process easier.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
I recommend using full-fat sweetened condensed milk as it will set better than the light version.
Ready-diced apricots and almonds can also be used or chopped with a knife.
Freeze Apricot And Nut Coconut Balls for up to 3 months.

Method

Step 1.

Place the roasted almonds in a food processor or blender, blend until somewhat coarsely chopped (not too fine or too coarse). Remove

In the same food processor place the dried apricots and sultanas and blend until you have fine chunks.

Step 2.

Add the coarsely chopped almond, apricot mixture, condensed milk and desiccated coconut and mix together until well combined.

Step 3.

Wet hands and roll the mixture into tablespoon-sized balls, then coat with the extra coconut. If the mixture is too soft, add a little more desiccated coconut or try placing it in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
