Shaz's Date Balls

Ingredients:

500g dates

200g walnuts

45g goji berries

1 tsp Acai powder

2 tbsp raw cacao

Method:

Blend the dates, walnuts and goji berries together in small batches at a time and place them in a large mixing bowl. Mix through the cacao and acai as you go. If your processor is powerful enough, you can just blitz all ingredients here together.

Once all blended, add a couple of tablespoons of boiling water a little at a time, mixing through until the desired consistency is achieved. A little at a time, because if you put too much in at once, the mixture will be too sloppy.

Have some desiccated coconut in another bowl ready for rolling about 20g worth of mixture into balls, now coated in coconut. ( I use disposable gloves here, as it can get a bit messy and I’ve found using gloves makes it easier) Place in a single layer in an airtight container, and store in the fridge.

(makes about 40 balls)

Enjoy
