Ten minute Pumpkin fig chia cocoa cookies!

Hey everyone! Wow am I hearing A LOT about pumpkin! Is it just me or does every Holiday revolve around pumpkin these days? I like pumpkin just as much as the next person but geese!

If you’re anything like me you also have noticed it’s FIG SEASON! I LOVE figs! So much so that I ate them every day last year while they were in season! YEP!

In this recipe up on my blog TODAY I combine the best of both worlds! I didn’t quite know what to call them so I just called them what they are “Pumpkin Fig Chia cookies”!!! The suprize bitter and salty component in these will rock your taste buds! I took these to a party last week and they were gone within ten minutes!

This recipe is also in the dessert section of my book coming out January 1st Sexy on Salads!!! Enjoy!

Ten minute Pumpkin fig chia cocoa cookies!

2 Cups dried figs soaked for 2-3 hours in good water

1 Fresh Fig (Ripe)

3 TB chia seeds (not soaked)

4-5 TB of Cocoa nibs (I prefer SunFood) 

2 Cups & 2 TB dried coconut shreds

1 tsp Pumpkin Pie spice (HA gotcha didn’t I ~ You thought I was using real pumpkin!:) Told you I’m burnt out on Pumpkin! 

a pinch of cayanne

1 tsp pink sea salt or any “good” quality rock salt

Step 1 Toss all of this yummy RAW ORGANIC goodness into a food processor and blend! You may slowly add some of the liquid used to soak the figs in as well! This will provide the moisture to the cookies. Don’t pour too much:) If you do, you will simply add more shredded coconut to dry the recipe up a bit! 

Step 2 Take spoon full of your mixture into your hands and form into balls. Once the balls are formed split into three groups and place into three different plastic bags.

Step 3 Once the balls are in each bag you will want to take one cup of chia and pour into one bag. Next take shredded coconut (one cup) into another bag. For the last bag take one cup of large crushed keltic sea salt! Shake the balls in each bag until each ball is covered in the different ingredient! 

EAT THOSE BALLS! YUMMY! EAT THEM WITHOUT SHAME OR GUILT KNOWING YOU ARE FEEDING YOUR BODY LIVE FOOD THAT WILL HEAL YOU ON A CELLULAR LEVEL! Trust me~ I know stuff:)
