Introduction

Adapted from Martha Stewart, these chewy, creamy balls of heaven are coated in a crunchy rice cereal and coconut layer that keeps them separate and prevents them falling apart in your hands. You definitely want to chill these for a good 2 hours or so before serving though!

Ingredients

    1 cup plain soymilk
    1 cup apple juice
    1/4 cup dark brown sugar
    2 tbsp agave nectar
    1/2 tsp cinnamon
    1/4 tsp nutmeg
    1/2 cup raw short-grain brown rice
    1/2 cup raisins
    1 cup crisp rice cereal (use a gluten-free variety like Nature's Path if need be)
    1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, toasted

Directions

In a saucepan, combine soymilk, apple juice, sugar, agave nectar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Bring to a simmer.
Add rice and stir in.
Partially cover, and cook over low heat for 50 minutes.
Stir in the raisins and re-cover (again, leave a small gap with the lid), cook a further 35 minutes.
Pour into a bowl and refrigerate 2 hours.
Lightly crush the rice cereal in a zip-top bag.
Combine coconut and rice cereal in a shallow dish.
Roll rice pudding mixture into small balls (you should get about 24) and then roll in the coating mixture.
Place onto a parchment or foil lined baking sheet and chill 2 hours before serving.
