3 Ingredient Date Balls
All you need is three ingredients for these perfect little balls of energy.
What you need
- medjool/halawi dates
- cacao
- desiccated coconut/chopped walnuts
How to make 3 ingredient date balls
De-pit the dates and add to a food processor.
Add the cacao and nuts in with the dates, and blend until it all comes together in a lump.
Remove from the processor and divide into six. Roll into balls using the palm of your hands.
Pour a small amount of cacao powder and nuts into separate bowls. Roll each ball in your topping of choice.
Refrigerate to set and enjoy with a cuppa!
These energy balls are easily customisable. Add in oats, dried fruits, different nuts, powders, whatever you fancy.
They’re wonderful as a dessert or a snack. I love having them pre-workout, or with a cup of tea mid-afternoon.
