I am not a big breakfast person, so if I disguise breakfast as something much more appealing- like candy- I am 100% on board.  This morning I snacked on a handful of chilly, sweet, fresh and luscious cocount candy mixed with white nectarines, the prize this week of the Farmer’s Market.

This takes about 3 minutes to make and it is VERY nutritious as well as artful and yummy!  It is an adaptation of  THIS recipe I saw on Raw Food Recipies.   This is something just about anyone can make!

Farmer’s Market Raw Coconut Candy

• 2 cups dried, unsweetened shredded coconut. (you can get raw, dehydrated coconut if you want this to be totally “raw”)
• 1/2 cup melted/liquid coconut oil (again, you can use “raw” but it is not necessary)
• 2 tbs honey
• 1 tsp natural vanilla extract
• 1 piece of super fresh Farmer’s Market stone fruit (or a healthy handful of berries)

I put the first two ingredients (coconut & oil) in a Vitamix and tamped it down until it becomes a sticky and slightly creamy mix.  If you have a decent blender or food processor and pause frequently to move the contets of the jar around you should be able to get it close to that. Add in the honey & vanilla.  Whir some more.

I chopped up a white nectarine and spread it like confetti on the bottom of a large, loaf-shaped freezer container.  You can use a baking pan or even foil-lined, coconut-oil coated muffin tins.

Pour the coconut mix over the fruit.  I mix it a bit with the nectarine as I spread it out  in the pan and create a flat, fruit-jeweled layer.

I sets in the freezer for a bit until it will hold its form but not quite frozen rock solid.  It is very hard not to eat a whole batch with a friend in a sitting….!
