RAW Superfood Buckwheat Snack



About this recipe:
This is a great snack for when you're busy or on the road. Made with the superfoods Goji berries, Cocoa nibs and the mineral -rich antioxidant Hunza raisin it is a guaranteed little power booster.

You will need a dehydrator for this recipe.

Ingredients:
• 2 c. hulled buckwheat, soaked for at least 8 hrs
• 1/3 c. raw cocoa nibs
• 1/2 c. goji berries, blend in a coffee blender into small bits
• Himalayan Hunza raisins, enough to decorate

1. Rinse and drain the soaked buckwheat and transfer to a blender with an S blade. Blend just enough to not break down the seed entirely (this will keep it sticky).
2. Mix in the cocoa nibs and goji berries.
3. Transfer the mixture to a dehydrator tray lined with Teflex sheet.
4. Spread out with a spatula until its 1/4 inch thick.
5. Score with the back of a knife into 2 x 2 inch squares and decorate with Hunza raisins.
