RECIPE NOTES & TIPS

Taste & Adjust – Before rolling, press a little in your hand — if it’s dry, add more syrup or coconut oil (or a splash of water).
Refrigerate First – Chilling helps them firm up and keeps them intact in lunch-boxes.
Store Airtight – Keep in fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Double or Triple the Batch – These freeze beautifully — great for meal prep and 'grab n go' snacks - they'll be thawed by morning tea time!
