This recipe packs a powerful punch of energy and foods that benefit fertility such as coconut, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and sesame seeds. Try substituting almond butter for peanut butter for an extra fertility food!
3/4 cup dried apricots
3/4 cup dried apple
4 brown rice cakes
1 cup unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
1/3 cup sesame seeds
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 1/4 cup fruit sweetner
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
In a food processor, pulse the apricots, apples, and brown rice cakes to a fine texture. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside. Next, pulse the coconut, seeds, and oats to roughly combine. Add to the fruit mixture, along with the fruit sweetener and peanut butter. Mix everything together until well combined. Cover and chill the dough for at least 1 hour. Roll the dough into 2 oz balls. Roll the balls in toasted sesame seeds to coat, pressing them in slightly.
