I want to convert the recipe below to raw. The only thing non-raw is the "toasted wheat germ". What should I use to substitute it? I want to keep the recipe nut-free, because I want to make these as something my daughter can take to school (it's a nut-free school). I wonder if it would be fine just leaving it out?
Any ideas appreciated, here's the recipe below:
Sunflower-Sesame Treats
3/4 cup sunflower seed meal
1/4 cup tahini (ground seame seed)
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut shreds
1/4 cup honey
1/3 cup toasted wheat germ
1/3 cup finely-chopped dates or raisins
Mix ingredients in medium-sized bowl.
Separate mixture into two portions. Place each portion on a separate piece of wax paper. Form into rolls. Wrap securely in wax paper and store in refrigerator.
When sufficiently chilled, remove from refrigerator; unwrap roll and cut into one-half inch pieces. Serve as a snack or accompany with fruit after a hearty meal. Yield: two 4-inch rolls.
