Vegan Raw Energy Balls

1. In a food processor, grind the walnuts into fine pieces.

2. Add the dates, Options Vegan Belgian Choc, vanilla extract, sea salt, and process until they form a sticky consistency.

3. Add a dash of dairy-free milk if the mixture looks a little dry. But only a dash, or you’ll end up with a paste that’s too sticky to be rolled.

4. Process until all the mixture is blended and you have a sticky dough.

5. Using a spoon, scoop the mixture out and roll it into balls.

6. Dust and roll with Options Vegan Belgian Choc and place on a piece of greaseproof paper. 

You can store these energy balls in the fridge in an airtight container and keep them for up to two weeks. Not a fan of walnuts? You can use almonds or pecans as an alternative. Or why not roll them in desiccated coconut for a different flavour and texture?

These raw balls make a great little energy boost for when you’re on the go and pair perfectly with a delicious green tea.
