Ingredients:

1 cup gluten free rolled oats

1 cup almonds

1/2 cup shredded coconut

1/2 cup brown rice flour

1/3 cup Wholesome Sweeteners coconut sugar

1 flax egg

1/4 cup coconut oil

1/4 cup applesauce

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp ground vanilla bean

1/2 tsp almond extract

1 tbs almond milk

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350.

2. Blend the oats and almonds together until they are the consistency of flour. Works great in a Vitamix. Pour the mixture in a bowl.

3. Blend 1 cup shaved coconut into a fine consistency. What remains should equal about 1/2 cup.

4. Add the coconut, the coconut sugar and the brown rice flour to the almond/oat mixture.

5. In a small bowl, combine all the wet ingredients.

6. Add the wet to dry.

7. With wet hands, form dough into balls and place on lined baking sheet about 1 inch apart. The dough will be sticky.

8. Once all the dough is rolled into balls, you can add the chocolate chips to the tops of each ball.

9. Bake in the oven for about 12-14 minutes.

Bon Appetit!
