Yield: 14-16 energy balls

I N G R E D I E N T S

½ cup Raw Organic Coconut flakes, dry

½ cup Raw Organic Cacao Powder

¼ cup liquid sweetener, such as honey or maple syrup

D I R E C T I O N S

1. Add the first three ingredients (sunflower seeds, raisins, and coconut flakes) to a blender or food processor. Pulse until the ingredients are chopped up. If needed, stop periodically to loosen the mixture with a rubber spatula. Do not over-blend. You still want the mixture to contain some whole pieces.

2. Pour the crumbly mixture into a large bowl and mix in remaining ingredients.

3. Stir the mixture until it's a doughy consistency. Take a tablespoon of dough and roll into 1-inch balls. Add a small amount of water as needed. 

4. Dust the balls in the cacao powder. They can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks, or stored in the freezer for up to one month. 

Enjoy!
