Clean Coconut Balls

Hard to believe these are clean and hard to stop at one ;)


Ingredients
2 cups of almonds (can also use walnuts)
2 cups of dessicated coconut + and extra 1/2 a cup to roll balls in if desired
2 cups of dates + a cup of water (soak for an hour or 2 to make them easier to blend/process)
1/2 cup cacao
Can also add a few tablespoons of chia seeds or a few tablespoons of superfood powder! (i love mesquite and maca)

 Method
1. Pop almonds into food processor and blitz into almond meal (can leave some almond chunks in if you like, i do!) Pour into a big bowl and stir in coconut and cacao.
2. Place dates and water into food processor and blend until smooth. Can add more water if you need to, it should be like a slopy paste, doesnt matter if its a little more on the liquid side of things :)
3. Pour into bowl with other ingredients and stir well. Can add some coconut oil if too dry, or more coconut if too wet
4. Roll into balls and roll in coconut. Can also roll in cacao, or leave plain. Pop them in the fridge for a few hours, preferably overnight to set!
