My family adore these energy balls. They are a bite size snack packed with quality protein and give a slow release energy. My husband uses them for cycling while my son eats them between school and his sports clubs for an extra physical boost. Energy Balls In a food processor (or blender) add - 200g Brazil &/or almond nuts* (or any quality nut that you prefer. I do not use peanuts) 250g Dates 1 tbsp cacao powder 1 tbsp macca powder 1 tbsp honey (I use raw honey)* 1 tsp coconut oil 1 tsp bee polleen* With the cutting blade process this mix to a dough consistency. Roll tsp amounts of dough into balls and roll these in coconut. Makes approximately 25 to 30 balls. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for approximately 2 weeks. Can be eaten 20 minutes after refrigeration. Optional - try other dried fruits or combinations e.g. apricots and dates. Use more or less of the cacao & the macca powders. To your taste. Add seeds to your mix *Allergies - if you have nut or bee product allergies, please seek further advice from me.
