Ingredients
  

  • 4 oz (115 g) macadamia nuts
  • 4 oz (115 g) avocado pulp, from about 1 large avocado
  • 1 oz (28 g) cooked prosciutto, crumbled
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • For easier rolling, chill the avocado mixture in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before forming it into balls.
  • Toast the macadamia nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes before blending to deepen their nutty flavor.
  • Feel free to swap the prosciutto with crispy crumbled bacon or add a tablespoon of finely chopped fresh chives for an oniony kick.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Note that the avocado may brown slightly.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Place the macadamia nuts in a food processor or blender and pulse until they form a coarse, crumbly texture.
  3. Divide the crumbled nuts into two equal portions.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the avocado pulp, one half of the crumbled macadamia nuts, the crumbled prosciutto, and the black pepper. Use a fork to mash and mix everything together until well combined.
  5. Scoop and roll the mixture into 6 evenly-sized balls.
  6. Spread the remaining half of the crumbled macadamia nuts onto a small plate. Gently roll each avocado ball in the nuts, pressing lightly to ensure they are fully and evenly coated.
  7. Serve immediately for the best texture, or chill briefly before enjoying.
