Chocolate salty balls 🙌🏽 RECIPE 👇🏽 I don’t really have a fixed recipe for these balls, which I’ve been making for years now. In short, it’s a mix of dates and nuts plus anything else in the cupboard to help get the consistency right. I try to stick to mostly whole food ingredients, but the odd time some @nutellauk sneaks in and I’m cool with that. I used to buy peanut butter balls at cafes until I learnt that quite a few of them are topped up with icing sugar 😳 and I definitely don’t need to OD on THAT much glucose first thing. The balls are high in protein because of the nuts, and high in fibre because of the dates (and any other dried fruit, nuts or whole seeds you might choose to add), but don’t forget that dried fruit is high in natural fruit sugars, so if you’re not going to burn off that easily accessible energy with your muscles right away, definitely limit your ball intake to just one ☝🏾 Some people add oats also... I’m not a massive fan as the wheat bloats me 👎🏼 but you go ahead as oats are a good source of slow release energy! Just remember any kind of nuts work, along with pitted dates - and then add a spoon of peanut butter | Nutella | even honey 🍯 to help bind everything together if it needs it. [Sometimes I add all three of those if I’m feeling indulgent]... I also add some whole seeds (pumpkin, sunflower, chia are all good) plus @linwoodshealthfoods linseed mixes too - whatever is in the cupboard really... sure you know the craic... My advice is to experiment and play around with quantities and consistencies until you get a mixture which is putty-like, and gooey enough to mould in your hands. I prefer balls, but you can flatten into a baking tray and make a brownie shape if you prefer.
