Crazy For Coconut Energy Bites
What you need:
1 & 1/4 Cup almond flour
8-10 Medjool dates (pitted & chopped)
1 & 1/4 Cup raw walnuts
2 Teaspoons vanilla extract
Finely shredded unsweetened coconut
Pinch of sea salt
To make:
1. Add the dates to a blender and mix until a ball forms
2. Remove from blender and add dates to bowl
3. Add the almond flour and walnuts to food processor and blend until consistency is meal-like
4. Add the mixed dates back into the blender as well as the vanilla extract, & blend until dough-like consistency
5. Scoop out the dough using a cookie scooper or spoon and roll into balls (my dough was a little dry/crumbly, so I microwaved a small amount of coconut butter and used that to firm up the dough)
6. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, and place directly on cookie sheet
7. Dip in finely shredded coconut, store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, and...
ENJOY!
