Coconut Ginger Energy Balls (SCD, Grain-free, Paleo, Dairy-free)


  • Author: Kristi McCollom

Description

Boasting amazing health benefits, these bite-sized treats are naturally sweetened with a slight kick of ginger.  They are a perfect afternoon pick-me-up and your kids will never know they’re good for them!


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup medjool dates

2 Tbsp pecans (may substitute any nut you have on hand)

2 Tbsp walnuts (may substitute any nut you have on hand)

3/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

2 Tbsp grated fresh ginger


Instructions

  1. Peel and grate 2 Tbsp fresh ginger.
  2. Place nuts into a food processor and pulse a few times.
  3. Add the rest of the ingredients to the food processor and process until everything incorporated and is chopped into tiny pieces.
  4. Using your hands, form balls with the mixture.  I usually make mine into about 1-inch balls.
  5. If desired, roll the finished balls in extra coconut flakes.  (The phots show half the balls rolled in coconut flakes and half plain)
