Eat for: Snack, treat
Cuisine: Healthy, raw, vegan
Serves: 10-20
INGREDIENTS:
  • 3 cups raw cashews, soaked - min half an hour
  • ½ cup dried cherries, chopped
  • 3 medjool dates, soaked - min half an hour
  • 2 tablespoons raw cacao powder
  • Pinch Himalayan salt
  • 1 tablespoon pea protein powder (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • Desiccated coconut – for rolling
INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. In a high powered blender, blend cashews and medjool dates until smooth. My blender doesn't get things super silky, but a bit of texture works fine.
  2. Add salt, cacao powder, pea protein (if using), coconut oil and maple syrup and use your hands to combine.
  3. Add in cherries.
  4. Using slightly wet hands, roll into balls - it's up to you on what you feel is a good balance between being enough for a snack and making them stretch further! I like them biggish :P.
  5. Roll in coconut.
  6. Store in freezer for up to 2 months.
