Hello my Dearest Foodies,
As I am writing this, I am waiting for my daughter to pick me up because today is my son in law's BD party and I made these for him. Well, I am sure he will not eat all of them; my daughter probably will, if there is any left after the party, lol.
Anyway, I had a different desert planed to make for this occasion, however, things didn't turned out as I was hopping, lol. Luckily, energy balls always save the day and you can even make them quite presentable. Not to forget, they are delicious, full of nutrients and easy to make!
I wish you a wonderful weekend and make sure you eat your fruits and veggies!

• Almond flour ¼ cup
• Coconut oil ¼ cup (melted above steam)
• Pumpkin seeds ½ cup
• Puffed quinoa 1 cup
• Cacao powder 2 tbs

COATING
• Matcha powder ¼ cup
• Red beet powder ¼ cup
• Cacao powder ¼ cup
• Almonds crushed ½ cup
PROCESS
• Start blending the dates in a food processor by pressing pulse button.
• Gradually keep adding all the rest of ingredients except puffed quinoa and pumpkin seeds.
• Blend until smooth, transfer into a bowl, add the seeds and quinoa puffs and mix gently but thoroughly.
• Cover with lid and place into a refrigerator for 1 hour for the mixture to cool so it’s easier to work with.
• In the meantime, line your tray with parchment paper.
• When ready, start making balls by using mini ice cream scoop or spoon, scooping 2tbs of mixture per ball.
• Roll each in your palm and place on the tray.
• When ready, store those you want to coat in Matcha and Beet powder into a freezer for one hour.
• The ones you like to coat in crush almonds, you can dip immediately.
• For Matcha a Beet powder is best to use small sifter. Just separate the once you would like to coat with your chosen powder on parchment paper and lightly dust them using a sifter. Turn them around ad repeat until all sides are covered.
• Store them in a sealed container and keep in a refrigerator. If you decide to make more, you can also store them in a freezer as long as they are sealed well.

Awwwwwwwwww, thank you so much my Dear Tracey. Well my daughter put them in fridge for her self and the boys. Well, I am sure my son in law is going to have some too. But the guests didn't get any, lol. Otherwise, I enjoyed the time with my grandsons the most, I don't really care about parties. But I am sure you can relate to that 😍

Absolutely! He's two and he amazes us by his vocabulary and grasp of conversations! But he can also be funny. It's a special age watching small children discover the world around them. So inspiring
