The seeds and coconut add a nice texture to these treats. If you want some variation, try using dates or apricots in this recipe if you want to get creative. ‘Nuff said….lets eat!
No-Bake Trail-Mix Cookies
Makes 12
Gluten-Free, Vegan; Free Of: grain, eggs, dairy, soy, cane sugar, corn
1/2 cup dried figs

1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, + @ 1/4 more for coating
2 Tablespoons sunflower seeds or chopped nuts of choice

- In a small food processor, process the figs and raisins into a thick paste. You can add a Tablespoon of applesauce if the dried fruit is too thick to puree very well.

*Quinoa is not a true grain, but rather a psuedograin or seed
