Coconut-Lime Energy Bites

Ingredients for Coconut-Lime Energy Bites

• 90g pitted dates

• 90g rolled oats

• 90g unsweetened shredded coconut or coconut flakes, plus extra for rolling

• 80g macadamia nuts or cashews

• 40g hemp seeds

• 2 tablespoons white chia seeds (black chia are okay, too)

• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cashew butter

• Zest and juice of 2 limes

• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

• 1/2 teaspoons spirulina or chlorella powder (optional)

• 1/2 teaspoons maca powder (optional)

• 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt

In a food processor, combine all of the ingredients and pulse until the mixture is evenly chopped and beginning to stick together and form a ball. Transfer the “dough” to a medium bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Using a small ice cream scoop, or about 1/2 tablespoons measure, portion the dough into balls. Roll each ball with your hands to make it smooth.

Sprinkle shredded coconut or coconut flakes onto a plate and roll the balls in it to lightly coat. Store the bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or the freezer for up to 1 month.
