Almond Butter Energy Balls
Almond butter cocoa snack recipe made with only 5 whole food ingredients for a boost with no added sugar or artificial sweetener.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup almond butter preferably sprouted and/or soaked
- 1 cup pureed dates (date paste) use coupon code healthyhome
- 1/4 cup carob, cocoa, or cacao powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 pinch coarse sea salt
- 1-2 Tbl almond flour
Instructions
-
Mix all of the ingredients together in a large glass bowl. I like to lightly oil my hands with coconut oil and knead the ingredients together by hand instead of using a mixer.
-
Roll the batter into small balls of about 1 inch thickness. Tip: to make the balls very quickly, take a small amount of the batter and roll it around in your palms ... each ball only takes a few seconds and they are perfectly round!
-
Lightly roll each ball in almond flour which adds an enjoyable texture experience to each bite. You can either use blanched almond flour from the store or pulse 4-5 sprouted or roasted almonds in a coffee grinder to it make fresh.
-
Store in the the refrigerator in a covered container. They last for several weeks.
