Blueberry Macaroons

These bad boys are one of the few treats Joey can eat on his autoimmune paleo regimen.  Sweetened with dates, these are relatively healthy, yet will even have a three year old asking for more!  Check out the Auto-Immune Paleo blog here for more great recipes and to order the cookbook, it is AWESOME!

Blueberry Macaroons

2 cups fine coconut flakes (unsweetened)
1 cup dates, pitted and soaked in warm water for 5 minutes
1 cup blueberries, frozen
1/4 teaspoon alcohol-free vanilla (optional)
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons fine coconut flakes (or more, to roll them in)

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.  Place everything (except the extra coconut to roll them in) in a food processor and process until thick and sticky.  Form into little balls, rolling the coconut flakes for decoration.  Bake on a greased (or parchment papered!) cookie sheet for 12-15 minutes, or until barely golden.
