Almond Coconut Christmas Balls Food

ALMOND, COCONUT AND DATE BITES

Steps:

• Place the dates in a medium bowl and cover with warm water (about 100 degrees F). Let sit for 2 minutes. Drain well and place in a food processor with the oats, almonds, flax seeds and 1 teaspoon salt. Process until the oats and almonds are minced, about 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup coconut flakes, the almond butter and cacao nibs and blend until fully incorporated, scraping the sides of the food processor down as needed, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Shape the mixture into 2 tablespoon-sized balls (a 1-ounce scoop works well here). Once all of the mixture has been shaped, place the remaining 1/4 cup of coconut flakes in a small bowl and roll each ball in the coconut flakes to fully coat. Store in an air-tight container for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

ALMOND COCONUT ENERGY BALLS

Steps:

• In a big bowl combine both flours, salt, desiccated coconut and chocolate.
• Microwave your almond butter on high for 30 seconds to make it runny and then stir in vanilla.
• Add this to the flour mixture and knead into a dough adding tea as necessary. You should be able to form this with your hands easily like you would form cookies. Depending on your flours and almond butter you will need more or less liquid. Just make sure this does hold together well without being sticky.
• Roll into bite-sized balls and refrigerate until ready to use (I left mine over night).
• Enjoy!
