RAW CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER BALLS

RAW CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER BALLS

You were all hounding me for this recipe after popping up the photos on my Instagram Stories last night, so here it is for you all.

I love, love, love healthy and easy snacks that are quick to make at home, and best of all; doesn’t cost you a fortune either!

Yesterday I was really in the mood for something sweet – and this was even after having had sticky-rice ice cream (oops!), so I whipped up these healthy Raw Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls for Pash and myself, and it only took me 15 minutes – no joke!

We had one each, and popped the rest in the fridge – plenty for the next few weeks ahead.

These are completely vegan, diary-free, gluten-free & refined sugar-free.

The below recipe will give you about 24 balls or so – depending on how big or small you roll them.

Raw Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup pitted dates
• 1/2 cup sunflower seeds (can substitute with any seeds or nuts)
• 2 tbsp peanut butter (can substitute with any nut butter or leave it out completely)
• 6 tbsp raw cacao
• 3 tbsp desiccated coconut + more for rolling.
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 2 tbsp coconut oil
• water

Directions:

1. Add all ingredients to a food processor or blender and blend until almost smooth. I like it a bit chunky, but you can blend for as long as you want to.
2. Add more water if it’s not blending properly, but not too much as you don’t want to mixture too soggy.
3. Roll the mixture into little balls and roll them in desiccated coconut afterward.
4. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.

Let me know in the comments what you think, if you do decide to make them at home.
They’re super easy, and even the fussiest eaters will love these – promise!
