I call these my healthy ‘Ferrero Roche’ balls! They are an ideal post workout snack and a fabulous way to beat those afternoon sugar cravings.
Makes approx 20 – 25 balls
Ingredients:
5 tbsp. almond butter
3 tbsp. cacao
2 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp. Chia seeds
1 tbsp protein powder / hemp powder
2 tbsp raw honey (or preferred sweetener)
3 tbsp coconut flour
1 cup of almonds, roughly broken up in a pestle and mortar
Method:
Combine all ingredients apart from the almond pieces into a large bowl. Using a fork, mix completely until it forms a dough which is firm enough to roll into small balls about the size of a walnut. Roll the balls in the almond pieces and place the balls on baking paper on a plate.
You can eat them right away but they are best if you put them in the fridge for 30 minutes or longer term keep them in the freezer.
