Deliciously Ella energy balls

I can’t take credit for these balls as I took the recipe from Deliciously Ella many years ago now and have been serving them up at Reiki attunements ever since. They help give a little pick me up when energy is slumping and offer that feel good factor. In theory, in moderation, most can eat, but kapha people do need to be careful of eating too many dates and the heaviness they might bring.

Ingredients

1 cup of mixed organic nuts and seeds

2 cups of organic medjool dates

4 tablespoons of organic cacao powder

2 tablespoons of organic chia seeds

2 tablespoons of (home made) organic almond butter

2 tablespoons of organic coconut oil

2 tablespoons of filtered water

Method

Whizz the organic nuts and seeds in a processor for about 30 second.

Add all the other ingredients and whizz until the mixture forms a sticky clump.

Roll the stickiness into balls and pop in the freezer for an hour or so (put on greaseproof paper otherwise they stick to the tin/plate).

Pop in the fridge and eat when you need a pick me up!

If you can, it is very satisfying making your own almond butter by roasting almonds and then whizzing in a very good mixer.
