Ingredients
-
1/2 cup Tonomi's Banana Flour
-
1 cup pitted dates
-
1/4 cup almond butter (or your preferred nut butter)
-
2 tablespoons chia seeds
-
2 tablespoons ground flaxseeds
-
1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional, for rolling)
-
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
A pinch of sea salt
-
2 tablespoons water (as needed)
Directions
Place the pitted dates in a food processor and pulse until they form a sticky, smooth paste. If your dates are a bit dry, soak them in warm water for 10 minutes beforehand, then drain.
Add the Tonomi's Banana Flour, almond butter, chia seeds, ground flaxseeds, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt into the food processor with the date paste. Pulse until all ingredients are well combined and a thick dough forms.
If the mixture feels too dry, add 1-2 tablespoons of water and pulse again. You want the mixture to be sticky enough to roll into balls but not too wet.
Using your hands, roll the dough into small, bite-sized balls. You should get about 10-12 energy balls from this batch.
For an extra touch of flavor and texture, roll the energy balls in shredded coconut. This adds a nice crunchy layer and makes them look even more appealing!
Place the energy balls in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up, then they’re ready to enjoy! Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Recipe Note
Tips:
You can customize these energy balls by adding extras like dark chocolate chips, dried fruit, or a touch of cinnamon for more flavor.
If you're allergic to nuts, swap almond butter for sunflower seed butter or another nut-free alternative.
For a smoother texture, ensure the dates are soft by soaking them before processing.
