Pecan & almond energy balls

If you need a mid-morning pick-me-up, this is it!  The coconut flakes combined with cocoa nibs give a hint of chocolatey sweetness and the nuts help you feel energised to get through the day. 

Ingredients

100g pecans
70g almonds
30g coconut flakes
2 scoops vanilla protein powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 TSB cacao nibs
2 TSB coconut oil
2 TSB almond butter

Method

Put the nuts, coconut flakes, protein powder in a food processor and whizz up until the nuts are finely chopped.  Then add the cinnamon & cocoa nibs and mix again.  Finally add the coconut oil and almond butter.  Mix everything together well until it starts forming together.  

Roll the mixture into balls - about the size of small gold balls.  This should make around 20 energy balls.
