RAW ENERGY BITES


Raw treat heaven. Here'a a great guilt-free energy snack when you are on the run or craving something sweet. Can dairy-free, gluten-free and refined-sugar free taste any better?

You need:

  • 0.4 cup (1 dl) of hazelnuts
  • 0.4 cup (1 dl) of pecan nuts
  • 0.2 cup (0.5 dl) of almonds
  • 2 table spoons of hemp seeds (whole not the shelled ones)
  • 2 tbs of chia seeds
  • 2 tbs of raw cacao powder
  • 2 - 3 tbs of maple syrup 
  • 1 tbs coconut oil
  • 6 big and juicy pitted medjool dates (if you are using dried dates I suggest you soak them in water for about 30mins to soften a little)

Optional:

  • coconut flakes
  • goji berries

Blend all the nuts into a crunchy flour. Mix together with hemp and chia seeds, cacao powder, coconut oil and maple syrup. Blend the dates into a sticky paste in a separate bowl. Mix everything together and roll between your hands into small balls. You can cover the balls with coconut flakes or decorate with goji berries. Place them in the fridge or enjoy straight away.
