How to Make Maple Nut Orbs

  1. In a food processor, combine 1 cup of nut butter (peanut butter, almond butter, etc.) and 1/2 cup of maple syrup. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add 1/2 cup oat bran, 1/4 cup wheat germ, and 2 tablespoons of sesame seeds. Blend until a stiff, dough-like consistency forms. If using, add 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder at this stage and blend well.
  3. Roll the dough into 14 individual orbs (approximately 1-inch diameter). Roll each orb in 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Alternatively, press the dough into an 8x8 inch baking pan lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with coconut and chill for at least 30 minutes. Cut into squares once chilled.
  4. Enjoy your delicious and healthy Maple Nut Orbs!
