Grounding Hemp Protein Balls
Ingredients
- 3 medjool dates
- 1 TBSP hemp protein
- 1 cup coconut shreds
- ½ cup cashews
- Pinch of pink salt
- Pinch of cinnamon
- 1 TBSP pepitas
Instructions
- Toast coconut shreds either in the oven or on low heat in a non-stick pan. Put aside to cool down before processing.
- Place all ingredients into the food processor. Process until fine.
- Add 1 TBPS of water, continue to pulse until combined and your mix sticks together easily when pressed together.
- Roll into balls (whatever size of your liking). Either eat straight away or refrigerate for later! Enjoy!
Notes
- Important - make sure you pit the medjool dates before you blend them! Many a batch of mine have been wasted from forgetting this step. You'll know if you hear your blender hitting the pits or you bite into one and it feels like you've chomped down on a rock! You've been warned!
- Don't overprocess your mix. If you overprocess you will release too much oils from the toasted coconut and the pepitas and your batch will end up an oily mess. If this happens on accident don't worry, you can save it by adding in more dry coconut or instead of rolling the mix making it into a slice instead.
