Chocolate coconut energy balls

[craftylittlemonkey]

Raw, gluten-free, vegan, protein-rich.

I started with this recipe but doubled it and added so many alternates.

Made with dates, dried figs, and unsulphered dried apricots, the nuts are pecan, walnut and cashew. I rolled some of them in shredded coconut, some in cocoa powder.



A school-safe version is possible with seeds in place of nuts and you can add crunch by subbing popped millet, amaranth, or quinoa for some or all of the coconut.
