Last Thursday we made a very nutritious snack at MANUKURA. We processed almonds, walnuts, coconut, orange , vanilla and coconut oil and dried apricots together, then formed the dough into large apricot balls which we rolled in coconut. Everyone was focussed on the task of making enough for afternoon snack for 80 students, while maintaining quality control – both even sizes and clean work areas. We also learnt about safe food handling practices today which were carefully noted – ka pai everyone.

The atmosphere was happy with both morning and afternoon groups as they concentrated on making afternoon tea for everyone.

A simple, yummy, and yet healthy recipe that contains no added sugar or any other additives!
