A great little snack to have before or after training, exercising, gyming. Just like my protein fudge, perfect for us heads with a sweet tooth looking for a healthy option.
- 64 g / 1/2 cup Whole Almonds
- 85 g / 2/3 cup Dark Chocolate
- 250 g / 2 cups Pitted dates
- 1 Lime
- 100 ml Coconut milk (any milk/water/juice/)
- 30 g Pea Protein Powder (or powder of your choice)
- 60 g / 1/2 Cup Desiccated coconut
-
Heat oven to 180c/356fh. Spread out the almonds and toast for 5 minutes.
-
Spread out the coconut on a tray and bake for 2 minutes to get a nice toasted light brown color. When they cool, roughly chop them in your food processor, take out and leave to the side.
-
Add to your food processor your chocolate, dates, cinnamon, protein powder and juice of the full lime and roughly blend.
-
Slowly add in the milk to make a dough consistency- does not have to be smooth.
-
Take out the mix, place in a bowl, fold in almonds, mix well and leave in your fridge for around 5-10 minutes.
-
Take out the mix, roll into small bite-size balls and roll over the toasted coconut, covering the balls. Make as many balls as you want and leave back in the fridge. Eat anytime.
TIP: If you like a punch, add a little Rum/Whiskey.
