Turmeric No-Bake Energy Balls

These Turmeric no-bake energy balls are a wonderfully nutritious, delicious snack providing healthy fats, nutrition, and a handful of health benefits. 

Ingredients

1 cup almonds raw

1 cup walnuts raw

1/2 cup dried cranberries

1 cup shredded coconut

1 tbsp turmeric powder 

1/8 tsp salt

1/8 tsp black pepper

5 medjool dates

Instructions

Begin by putting the nuts in a blender or a food processor and blitzing them to little pieces.

They don't need to become too powdery as the thicker texture is nice for your energy balls. 

Next, add the rest of the ingredients and blend again to combine well. Make sure the dates 

and cranberries are well incorporated into the mixture*.

With a spoon, scoop out a bit of the mixture and try rolling it in a ball. If it sticks, great - if 

the ball falls apart easily, you might need to add an extra medjool date and blend again. 

Alternatively, you could add 1 tablespoon coconut oil.

When the mixture is sticky enough, roll it into balls. Feel free to use gloves so that your 

hands don't stain because turmeric WILL stain everything. 

These energy balls can then be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 5 days or 

frozen for up to six months.

* If your dates are feeling a little dry then feel free to soak them in hot water for 10 minutes before adding them to the blender. This can help you avoid having to add additional dates/coconut oil to the energy balls recipe.
