No-Bake Energy Balls

Making these ahead of time and having them on hand to snack on during the week is a great

simple option. And they only take 5 minutes to make!

Makes 12-14 balls

Ingredients:

¾ cup raw cashews

¼ cup raw pistachios, unsalted

12 Medjool dates, pitted

¼ cup shredded coconut

1 Tbsp matcha

1 Tbsp coconut oil

¼ tsp ginger powder

¼ tsp ground cinnamon

¼ cup pistachios, chopped (for topping)

Directions:

Place all the ingredients except the pistachios for the topping into a food processor and pulse until mixture is smooth and combined.

Make generous 1 Tbsp sized balls. Rub coconut oil on your hands before rolling to make sure they don’t stick.

Finally, roll the energy bites in the chopped pistachios and roll them again gently to make sure the pistachio pieces stick.
