I don’t know what I would do without my food processor. It’s likely one of my most used kitchen appliances. One thing I’m regularly making are energy bites! With a base of dates and almonds, there are endless combinations and flavours to make. These lemon energy bites are one of my favourites and are always a big hit! Sweet, tangy and refreshing like lemonade!
These bites are great as a sweet treat after a meal, afternoon snack or quick pre-workout bite.
3 Ingredient Lemon Energy Bites
Ingredients
- 1 cup pitted dates
- 1 cup raw almonds
- Juice of a lemon
Note: When measuring the dates, pack them tightly into the measuring cup - this will help ensure you use enough.
Instructions
-
1. In a food processor blend up dates, almonds and lemon juice.
2. Blend until it starts to form a large ball but try and leave some chunks of almond for texture.
3. Remove from the food processor and roll into 1 inch balls and then place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to harden.
