These are super simple to make and super delicious.  Always a hit with everyone whether or not they eat raw.  Have them for breakfast, dessert or for an afternoon snack.  This recipe yields about 15-20 balls, but it can easily be doubled to make more.

2 cups almond meal

2 tablespoons cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1 cup raisins, soaked in warm water for a few minutes

1/4 cup orange juice

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Combine almond meal, cinnamon and nutmeg in a bowl and mix well.  Add orange juice, raisins and vanilla to blender and blend enough to break the raisins apart, but not pulverize them completely.  Add liquid mixture to dry ingredients and mix together with a spatula until the mixture begins to form into a ball.  Using a teaspoon or very small ice cream scoop, take small amounts of dough and roll in your hands to make little balls.  Set on plate.  These can be served at room temperature or chilled to make firmer.

For an added treat, you can make this Vanilla Cream Sauce to serve with them.  With this sauce, they truly rival Cinnabun :)

1 cup raw cashews, best if soaked 1 hour or more

1  cup coconut meat

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup agave

2 tablespoons vanilla extract

1/4  teaspoons Celtic sea salt

1/2 cup coconut butter/oil, warmed to liquefy

In a high-speed blender, blend all ingredients except the coconut oil, until completely smooth.  With the blender on low, gradually add the coconut oil and continue to blend until completely incorporated and smooth.  This can be served at room temperature and drizzled over the balls, or chilled and used more like a frosting.  So Good!
