So yesterday I seen the lovely Tara Makeup make some energy balls on her snapchat & today I decided to attempt them. They didn't turn out very ball like as the mixture was too runny but they do taste amazing. They don't need to be cooked and are the perfect snack for those on a health kick.
Ingredients
- Dried seedless dates
- Mixture of nuts & seeds
- Cacao mix ( from Dunnes Stores )
- Cacao powder
- Coconut oil
- Coconut shaving
What you will need
- Mixed nuts of your choice - Hazelnuts, Almonds, Pecan etc
- Pumpkin seeds & a Cacao Mix ( I got mine in Dunnes )
- Soft Pitted Dates
- Dry Desiccated Coconut ( to roll the balls in, this step is optional )
- Cacao Powder
- Coconut Oil
- A blender or food processor
How to make them
- Blend dates, seeds & nuts together
- Add two tablespoons of cacao powder
- Melt a tablespoon of coconut oil
- Mix the dry ingredients with the melted coconut oil
- Time to get your hands dirty and roll the mixture into little balls
- Roll the balls in the dried coconut
Hope you enjoyed this healthy snack recipe, they are perfect to keep in your fridge or handbag.
They are so delicious and perfect for hitting that chocolate craving.
