Ingredients
- 2/3 cup toasted shredded coconut unsweetened
- 1 cup oats traditional
- 1/2 cup tahini paste
- 1/4 cup hemp hearts
- 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup honey unpasteurized
- 1/8 tsp fine salt optional
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger optional
- 1 tbsp water optional
Instructions
- If the coconut is not already toasted, heat a heavy bottom frying pan over medium-low heat. Add coconut and toast for 2 minutes, stirring the pan regularly so it doesn't burn. Make sure you watch it, you will know when it is done when the coconut is nice and golden.
- Add all of the ingredients except for the water into a mixing bowl and stir well to combine.
- Cover bowl and let sit in the refrigerator for around 30 minutes.
- Check the mixture, if it seems to dry add the water and mix well.
- Now roll the mixture into 15 evenly shaped energy balls using the palms of your hands. If the mixture is sticking to your hands too much to roll properly, wet your hands with a little water inbetween every 3-4 energy balls. Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week. They also taste great frozen, taken out as needed.
