- Cuisine: Raw Vegan, Gluten-Free
Ingredients
Scale
- 4–6 fresh figs
- 2 cups dried figs
- 6–8 dates (pitted)
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 4 tablespoons cashew butter
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds and/or hemp seeds
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- To your food processor, add fresh figs, dried figs, dates, shredded coconut, cashew butter, chia seeds, and vanilla. Blend until a dough-like consistency.
- NOTE: If too sticky or wet, add a little bit of shredded coconut.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 5 minutes. Then scoop out 1 1/2 Tbsp amounts (I like using a small scooper) and roll into balls. The “dough” should yield about 12-14 balls.
- Enjoy immediately and store well-sealed leftovers in the refrigerator for 1 week or in the freezer up to 1 month (or more).
- OPTIONAL: In your food processor, pulse, almonds, shredded coconut and/or banana chips. Then roll your energy bites on top for a crunchy coating. Taste great!
