Scale
- 1 cup oats or quinoa flakes
- 1/2 cup coconut butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract

- 1 large lemon (zested)
- 1 cup shredded coconut (for rolling)
Instructions
- Place oats or quinoa flakes in a food processor and pulse until they reach the consistency of a fine meal.
- Add remaining ingredients (excluding shredded coconut) and pulse again until mixture comes together as a dough.
- Scatter shredded coconut on a large plate. Scoop spoonfuls of mixture and roll into small balls (bunny tails), rolling each in shredded coconut until well coated. Pop onto a tray lined with baking paper and refrigerate until firm.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Oats are packed with soluble fibre which helps to fill you up and keep you feeling fuller for longer. According to studies, the beta-glucan found in oats can help to satiate your appetite for up to 4 hours. It is also found to lower ‘bad’ cholesterol levels – a perfect excuse to whip up another batch of these, I say.
