Raw Balls


These are some good balls! I only made a few changes to this recipe that my brother-n-law shared with me. They really satisfy your sweet cravings - especially for chocolate.

Raw Balls
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 cup pitted dates
1/2 cup raw carob powder
1/2 cup maple syrup or agave nectar
1/2 cup almond butter
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 tbl milled flaxseed
1/2 cup almonds
2 cups shredded, unsweetened coconut

Place the walnuts in a food processor and process until coarsely ground. Add the dates and pulse until well combined with the nuts. Add the carob powder, syrup,almond butter, vanilla, flaxseed and salt. Process until the mixture is thick and smooth. Add the almonds, and pulse a few times until combined - almonds remain chunky.
