- 2 cups unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 cup cashews (can sub with almonds, walnuts, or other nuts/seeds)
- 1/2 cup dates , pitted
- 4 tablespoons cashew butter (or other nut/seed butter)
- 1 tablespoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
- 1- inch fresh ginger root
- Pinch of sea salt and black pepper
- 1/8 cup raw cacao nibs
Add the coconut flakes and cashews to the food processor and run the machine for 2-3 minutes until the oils start to get released and you get a sticky dough
Add the rest of the ingredients, except for cacao nibs, and process some more until evenly combined and smooth. Throw in the cacao nibs and pulse a few more times until they’re spread out in the dough
Roll into 1-2” balls and garnish with extra coconut flakes or cacao nibs if desired. Serve right away or store in the fridge for the balls to firm up. Leftovers best stored in the fridge for 1-2 weeks
