Description

These yummy energy balls taste like a lemon bar but without all the sugar.  Keep these grain-free, sugar-free snacks on hand for a quick snack that’s actually good for you!


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup Medjool dates

1 cup raw cashews

1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes (plus extra for rolling)

1 tsp vanilla

Zest of 1 1/4 lemons (to taste)

Juice of 1/41/2 lemon


Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients into a food processor and process until everything is incorporated and the texture is to your liking.  (Taste the mixture and add extra zest or juice if you like extra lemon taste.)
  2. Roll the dough into 20 small balls.
  3. Roll the balls into the extra coconut flakes.  (I prefer to chop the flakes into small pieces, or even use a spice grinder to make it more of a powder if I have extra time)
  4. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.
