Some all natural delicious energy bites incorporating Purition Beetroot and Aduna Cacao Powder to keep in stock in your freezer (just remove 15 minutes before eating to thaw) for whenever you feel peckish or need a quick pick me up.
Makes approx 20 balls of 15g each, or you can flatten the mixture and chop into brownie squares.
Ingredients
- 110g pecans
- 140g almonds
- 2 tbs Purition Beetroot, plus more for coating
- 2 tbs Aduna Cacao Powder
- 4 or 5 dates, without pit
- Pinch of Salt (I used Himalayan Pink Salt)
- 1 or 2 tps (5/10 ml) (depends on how sweet you want them) rice or date or maple syrup
- 1 tbs almond butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract - optional
Method
Use food processor to make a crumbly or fine textured powder [depends on your personal preference] from the nuts. Add the Purition Beetroot, Aduna Cacao, and roughly chopped dates and blend to combine. Then add the salt, syrup, almond butter, and vanilla extract being optional.
Pulse until the mixture comes together and is well combined. Take tablespoon portions (15g) and roll into balls. Your hands/fingers will get sticky.
Roll the balls in the rest of the Purition Beetroot to coat them. Freeze till ready to eat. Can live in the freezer for up to 2 months. Takes about 30-40min to make.
