Raw Cashew Coconut Balls

 

Raw Cashew Coconut balls

So I am a snacker. I need snacks throughout the day to keep me going and I am on a mission to find some healthy recipes so I swap the chocolate fix for something nutritious. These Raw Cashew Coconut Balls have chia seeds in which are packed with Omega 3's, fibre and calcium. They also have cinnamon in, which helps regulate blood glucose levels to keep the sugary cravings at bay. This recipe is simple to make and will keep you full until Tea time...
 
 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of sticky dates
1/2 cup of soaked cashews
1/2 cup of desiccated coconut
1 tsp. of chia seeds
1 tbsp. of honey
Pinch of cinnamon
Drop of vanilla essence
 

Method: 

Put all the ingredients in a blender and blend for around 3 minutes until the mixture sticks between your fingers. It should be very sticky! If it isn't sticky enough then add more honey or put in the fridge to set for 5 minutes.
 
Scoop out the mixture and roll into little balls.
 
Put on a plate and keep in the fridge.

 
 
 
 
Enjoy!
