Cashews are high in the amino acid tryptophan which helps to make serotonin – the 'feel good' hormone responsible for feelings of wellbeing and feeling great! Cashews are also a good source of magnesium essential for energy metabolism and nerve function.
Ingredients
Makes 24 balls
200 g raw cashew nuts
50 g almond meal
1 cup desiccated coconut
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons Healthy Chef Protein
Raw Chocolate Dipping Sauce
1/4 cup cacao butter
1 tablespoon organic maple syrup
1 tablespoon tahini, room temperature
2 tablespoons Naked Chocolate
Method
- Combine cashew nuts, coconut, almonds and salt into a food processor.
- Process for a few seconds or until the mixture looks like fine golden crumbs. If you are wanting to add more protein then please add 2 tablespoons of protein at this stage.
- Add vanilla, maple and coconut oil.
- Mix until the raw lamington comes together.
- Roll into small balls and set aside.
- Place cacao butter into a small bowl and sit over some freshly boiled water for a few seconds until it melts then remove quickly from the heat.
- Add the rest of the ingredients from the dipping sauce recipe and mix well - I normally use a small mini hand whisk.
- Dip balls into the chocolate sauce then roll into coconut.
- Store in the fridge (covered) for up to 2 weeks.
- Enjoy and delight.
Notes and Inspiration
For a variation of this recipe... omit the dipping sauce all together and add 2 tablespoons of Naked Chocolate to the base recipe before blending for a chocolate lamington. If doing so you may need to add another 1/2 tablespoon maple to the recipe.
BLEND two lamington balls with 1 cup coconut water or coconut milk, 1 small banana and 1 cup ice for the most magnificent lamington smoothie.
