Servings: 14 balls
Equipment
- KitchenAid Food Processor My favorite food processor to make energy balls!
- Cookie Scoop An essential for even-sized balls.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup raw cashews
- ¼ cup raw shelled pistachios
- 12 pitted Medjool dates
- ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 teaspoons matcha powder
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- ¼ cup roughly chopped pistachios for rolling
Instructions
- Blend. Place the cashews, pistachios, Medjool dates, shredded coconut, matcha, and coconut oil in a food processor. Process for one minute, or until finely chopped and blended.
- Scoop and make balls. Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop out balls of the mixture. Roll between your hands to create evenly sized balls.
- Roll in pistachios. When all the balls have been rolled, roll them again through the chopped pistachios and press firmly into the balls.
- Chill. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up slightly, then enjoy!
Notes
- Store in the fridge: Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
- Store in the freezer: Separate layers of balls with parchment or wax paper so they don’t stick together. Then, store them in a sealed container in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, let them thaw in the fridge overnight.
