Ingredients
Lemon zest 1 tsp or 2g
Honey ¼ cup or 85g
Vanilla extract ½ tsp or 2g
Directions
- First grind up your pistachios in a food processor or blender (don't blend into a flour, just a meal like texture).
- Grate your lemon to form a bit of lemon zest.
- In large bowl, add in all your dry ingredients (flour, nuts). Then mix in your nut butter, lemon zest, honey, and lemon juice. Depending on how thin your almond butter is and how fine your coconut flour is, you might have to add more honey and/or almond butter.
- Mix well and roll into bite size balls. Place in freezer to harden. Freeze or keep in refrigerator to maintain freshness. Enjoy!
