Ingredients for Apricot And Coconut Balls

  • All Bran Cereal
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • Dried Apricot
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • Desiccated Coconut

How to Make Apricot And Coconut Balls

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, pour 1 cup of boiling water over 2 cups of bran cereal. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to absorb the water.
  3. Once the water is absorbed, add the bran mixture to a food processor.
  4. Add 1 cup dried apricots (pitted and chopped), 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk, and 1/4 cup shredded coconut to the food processor.
  5. Process until the mixture is well combined and the apricots are finely chopped. Scrape down the sides as needed.
  6. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls using your hands.
  7. Roll the balls in 1/2 cup shredded coconut, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours to allow the bliss balls to firm up completely. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
