Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 250g / 2 Cups Cups of Cashews
- 20g / 2 heaped tbsp of cacao
- 50g / 2 generous tbsp of Coconut Oil – I use Loving Earth (it tastes amazing)
- 7 fresh organic dates, pitted
- 1/2 cup desiccated coconut for rolling
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients (minus desiccated coconut) in the food processor and blend until combined. Mixture should resemble a moist granular texture that binds together well when rolled into balls.
- Pour desiccated coconut on a large plate or flat surface.
- Roll mixture into bite-sized balls, before rolling in desiccated coconut to coat.
- Place completed balls in the fridge for approximately 15 minutes. This will set the coconut oil.
Notes
These delicious Energy balls store in the fridge for 2-3 days in a sealed container. Perfect as a kitchen activity for children. Feel free to substitute cashews for other varieties of nuts. I often alternate between Walnuts and Cashews just to change things up. Enjoy!
