Spiced Orange Cacao Sesame Orbs

Although I rarely seem to experience cravings for non-fruit sweets, for some reason I recently felt like making/eating something with a confectionery, bread/donut-esque consistency…

Upon wandering into the kitchen & perusing my culinary arsenal, I discovered a huge mass of sesame seeds, along with a fair amount of coconut butter, cinnamon, and some other key elements. After a few moments of mad kitchen science and food processor play... Spiced orange cacao & sesame orbs were born!

Ingredients
  • 1 Tbsp coconut butter
  • 1 Tbsp lucuma powder
  • 1 Tbsp Gnosis Mayan Heat Hot Chocolate Elixir
  • 1 tsp coconut nectar
  • 1/2 tsp Ceylon cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne
  • 1/2 scoop Sunwarrior vanilla protein
  • 1/2 cup sesame seeds
  • 1 Tbsp Udo's 3•6•9 veg DHA oil
  • Organic blood orange peel, dried & ground into fine powder
  • Spring water to consistency (mine was infused with lemons & their peels)

Preparation:
  1. Place dry items in food processor, process until well-integrated.
  2. Pulse in coconut butter, coconut nectar, and Udo's oil.
  3. Add H2O gradually until mixture becomes a firm & slightly sticky ball of dough.
  4. Roll in hands until spheres are formed, then roll in sesame seeds until evenly coated.
