    Here's Why This Recipe Works

    My top 3 favorite reasons:

    2. Can Be Prepared In Under 10 Minutes - Simply add all the ingredients to a food processor to process, then form into ball shapes!
    3. Made With Clean, Real Food Ingredients - Only 9 healthy and nutrient-dense ingredients make this a snack you can feel good about eating!

    You can feel good about making my healthy plant-based recipe because it's raw, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, no-bake, no refined sugar, paleo-friendly, and Medical Medium® compliant!

    How To Make This Recipe: Step-by-Step Instructions

    I'll show you how to make this recipe and how easy it is with step-by-step instructions below.

    Before beginning, prepare a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, then set aside.

    Step 1: Add All Ingredients To A Food Processor

    Firstly, add all the ingredients for the ball mixture to your food processor.

    Process the mixture until it has a sticky, crumbly texture.

    Step 3: Add The Pitaya Powder Add-In To The Mixture

    Secondly, add the pitaya powder to the ball mixture and process again just enough to mix it in evenly, taking care to not overprocess.

    Step 3: Transfer Mixture To Bowl + Roll Into Balls

    Thirdly, once you've finished processing the mixture, transfer it to a medium-sized bowl so it will be easier to remove the mixture to make the balls.

    Take out a spoonful at a time, squeeze it tightly in your fist, then gently roll it between your palms to form a ball shape.

    Transfer the balls onto the prepared cookie sheet and place them in the refrigerator or freezer to firm for about 15-30 minutes.

    Step 4: How To Store

    Lastly, you can store your no-bake energy balls in an air-tight BPA-free container in the refrigerator or freezer.

    These are great to make ahead of time to have handy when you need a quick, healthy snack or energy boost during the day.

    Karielyn' Expert Tips + Ingredient Substitutions

    Here are some of my expert tips to make this recipe perfectly:

    Almond Flour: I haven't tested a substitution for almond flour, but you could try organic oat flour.

    Medjool Dates: Make sure they are pitted before adding them to your food processor.

    Sunflower Butter: This can be substituted with another neutral-flavored nut butter such as cashew butter or almond butter.

    Sesame Seeds + Hemp Seeds + Chia Seeds: I added these for their nutritional profile but you could use just one or any combination that you like or have on hand.

    Ground Cinnamon: I added this for flavor but it can be substituted with alcohol-free vanilla extract, organic vanilla bean powder, or omitted if you prefer.

    Pitaya Powder: I added this ingredient to give the energy balls a little extra nutrition boost, but since it doesn't affect the flavor, you can omit it.

    Himalayan Pink Salt: This is my salt of preference, however, it can always be substituted with sea salt.

    Serving Size: This recipe will make approximately (18) balls. Nutritional information is calculated for (1) ball which is (1) serving.
