FRUIT AND NUT WHEELS

• 20 apricots
• 13 dried figs
• 1/3 cup pistachios roughly chopped

• ¼ cup almond meal
• ¼ cup coconut flakes
• 1 tablespoon dried cranberries

How to Make Fruit And Nut Wheels

• Place the apricots and figs in a food processor and make a paste.
• Put the pistachios, walnuts, and mixed seeds in a pan over medium heat. Roast for 3 minutes, stirring regularly to prevent burning.
• Transfer the fruit paste to a large bowl with the almond meal, coconut flakes, cranberries, and once cooled, the pistachios, walnuts, and seeds.
• Mix with your hands.
• Lay out a long piece of plastic wrap on the kitchen surface. Shape the mixture into a log.
• Sprinkle the shredded coconut onto the plastic wrap and roll the log until coated, pressing the coconut into the sides.
• Wrap the log tightly, twisting the ends to make it airtight.
• Place the log in the freezer to harden for at least 4 hours.
• To serve, unwrap it while still frozen, and use a sharp knife to cut it into wheels.
