Ingredients
  • ½ cup almonds + 15 almonds reserved
  • ½ cup walnuts
  • Pinch salt
  • 3 Tablespoons maca powder
  • 2 Tablespoons raw cacao powder
  • ¼ cup shredded coconut
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¾ cup Medjool dates, pitted
  • 1 Tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 Tablespoon water + more if necessary
Instructions
  1. Add ½ cup almonds, walnuts and salt into food processor. Blend until very fine, like the texture of sand.
  2. Add in remaining ingredients. Blend again, until mixture begins to thicken and stick together.
  3. Check texture by pinching a bit between your fingers. It should be sticky and able to keep its shape. If mixture is too dry, add 1 Tablespoon more water.
  4. Pour mixture into a mixing bowl. Shape mixture with your hands into golf ball sized balls. Place 1 almond in the center. Serve immediately. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. Enjoy!
