- Recipe is created for
  TM 5
  
  If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
  For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
  
  Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Tip

Optional: Had 1-2 scoops of your favourite protein powder to the mix (sometimes you'll need to add a Tbs filtered water or a drizzle more coconut oil if it becomes too dry)

I usually use organic ingredients from Flannerys, however this is not necessary.

Have extra shredded coconut to roll balls in at the end

Delicious dairy free and gluten free treat

Great to keep in the freezer for weeks !
