Recipe Directions
1. Put almonds in food processor and process to very fine pieces.
2. Add dates a little at a time, with excess water squeezed out.
3. Add olive oil, sea salt, and vanilla. Process until mixture forms a ball.
4. Place ball in a bowl. Hand mix squash, coconut, and nutmeg until blended. Add more coconut or nutmeg, if desired.
5. Roll mixture into small balls. Roll balls in additional coconut to coat.
6. Refrigerate until firm; they also freeze well.
Punky's Thoughts
By punky I went to a raw food prep class recently, and this was on the menu.
I do not know exactly where the recipe is from, but the packet said, “Recipes are from Living in the Raw, Raw: The Uncook Book, and the Internet, by Rose Lee Calabro, Juliano and…” Sorry I can’t be more specific.
These donut holes were delicious. Very sweet, though. I was able to eat only one.
If I were to make these myself, I think I would add more nuts, but they were outstanding.
Remember--freezing destroys vitamin E.

Go to this web site to see what a banana squash looks like... also the picture below it is a butternut squash, which can be substituted for the banana squash, if you can't find the banana squash.
You will need to scroll down to see the banana and butternut squashes.

Hi Samilicious,
Unfortunately I don't remember in which book I read that freezing destroys vitamin E, but I did find this good info for you on the Internet. You will need to scroll down a little to find the part about freezing foods. Hope this helps. Victoria
