If energy balls have rolled their way into your heart, try these coconut bliss balls or these matcha energy balls!
Raw cashews: neutral tasting and soft nut packed with protein, nutrients, and antioxidants. Shredded coconut: Adds a tropical undertone and texture, and balances the sweetness out. Lemon: Zest and juice makes these lemon balls refreshing and bright! Melted coconut oil: The creamy richness of coconut melds with the bright citrus. Turmeric: You won’t be able to taste even a hint of the turmeric, but it provides such a beautiful, bright yellow! Optional toppings: Roll the balls in shredded coconut or poppy seeds for added texture and flavor.
Fresh lemon: Concentrated lemon juice won’t have the same lemon flavor as the zest and juice from a fresh lemon, so opt for fresh! Chill time: Make sure the lemon ball mixture hangs out in the fridge for at least an hour – chilled dough is easier to mold and helps the balls maintain their shape and texture. Coconut oil: Melt it gently to avoid overheating. Cashews: We don’t recommend substituting for other nuts as cashews have a creamy and soft texture with a neutral flavor. You don’t even need to soak them for this recipe. Blender time: Be mindful not to whizz the ingredients for too lon, as an overworked dough can be harder to work with. Toppings: Poppy seeds or shredded coconut add a delicious flavor and texture. You could also use chia seeds for some added nutrition.
