Method

1. Blitz the oats, date and walnuts to a coarse rubble — not a paste, or the balls turn dense.
2. Blend the cottage cheese smooth with the vanilla, then work it into the rubble with the almond flour, berries and chia. Chill 20 minutes; the mixture is unrollable warm.
3. Roll twelve balls and turn them in the coconut. Serve with the yogurt.
