Steps

3 hours 20 mins

1

Put the quinoa and water in a pan over a medium heat and cook until the quinoa is fluffed up and the water is gone, around 20 minutes
2

While it's warm put it into a bowl with all the other ingredients except for the coconut and mix together well
3

Line a baking sheet with parchment and put mounds of the mixture onto it. 2 tablespoons to a mound makes 16 generous bites. Don't worry about shaping them well yet
4

Put the baking sheet into the fridge for 45 minutes to harden the mixture
5

Get your coconut ready in a bowl and remove the tray from the fridge
6

Roll each mound into a ball, then roll each one in the coconut to coat. Put them back onto the baking sheet
7

Refrigerate for a further 2 hours then enjoy at your leisure!
