Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup walnut pieces diced
  • 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats gluten-free
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
  • 1 cup tahini
  • 1 cup coconut finely grated, no sugar added, plus more for rolling (about 1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 cup raw honey
  • 2 teaspoons raw honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon
  • Baking sheet
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

  1. Gather all your ingredients and ensure your workspace is tidy. Measure out the walnuts, oats, salt, tahini, coconut, honey, and vanilla extract.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced walnut pieces, gluten-free oats, and salt. Stir them together until they are evenly mixed.
  3. Add the tahini, finely grated coconut, honey, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Use a spoon to mix everything thoroughly.
  4. With clean hands, take small amounts of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
  5. Roll each ball in the extra finely grated coconut to coat them evenly.
  6. Place the coated Coconut Halva Balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Notes

  • These Coconut Halva Balls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • For longer storage, freeze them for up to three months and enjoy them straight from the freezer.
  • Feel free to substitute walnuts with pumpkin or sunflower seeds for a nut-free option.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder for a flavor twist.
  • Ensure the coconut is finely grated for better adhesion to the balls.
