Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 0.5 cup creamy almond butter
- 0.5 cup medjool dates, pitted and chopped
- 0.25 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
Place the pitted and chopped medjool dates into a food processor and pulse until they form a sticky paste-like consistency.
Add the almond flour, coconut flour, almond butter, shredded coconut, chia seeds, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt into the food processor with the date paste.
Pulse several times until the mixture is well combined and starts to clump together.
Slowly add the water one tablespoon at a time while pulsing, until the mixture becomes sticky enough to hold together when pressed.
Once combined, transfer the mixture to a bowl for easier handling.
Scoop about one tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a ball. Repeat this process with the remaining mixture. You should be able to make about 12 balls.
Place the protein balls on a plate or a lined tray and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Storage: Transfer the protein balls to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to a week. Enjoy them as a ready-to-go snack whenever you need a quick energy boost.
