This is the kind of recipe you can play with. With so few ingredients, try adding your own spark. You can have them raw and gooey, or cooked and crispy. You can enjoy them as biscuits or as round bliss balls. I have tried all variants and I think I have a favourite...but i'll leave you to find your own! I use coconut nectar to sweeten my treats, as it has a lower GI than sugar and naturally contains vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other nutrients. However, you can also use honey if you can't get your hands on coconut nectar. These lemony treats are the perfect tea time snack for mid-morning or late afternoon, paired with a cup of tea or a fresh juice.
