A snack for energy that will sustain you, plus a chocolatey taste to make it yum! A dairy free snack that travels well and will keep for about a week in the fridge in an air tight container. You can make batches of these and freeze them until you are ready to transfer to the fridge. Sugar free.

Chocolate Almond Energy Bites

Makes about 12 balls

Ingredients

1 cup medjool dates (pitted)

1 cup almonds

2 tablespoons chia seeds

1 tablespoon coconut oil

2 tablespoons almond butter

3 tablespoons raw cacao powder

What do I do now?

Place the almonds in a food processor and blend until you get a fine crumbled mixture. Add everything else and mix until it comes together in a sticky paste-like texture.

Roll into balls and freeze for an hour before transferring to the fridge.

Keep in an airtight container in the fridge until you are ready to eat.

Anything else I should know?

You can substitute almond for walnuts or pecans or any other nut that you prefer.

These will keep for about a week in an airtight container. They travel well also.

You can roll these in desiccated coconut or raw cacao if preferred.
