Superfood Balls!




we are addicted  to these amazing and yummy
Raw Superfood Energy Balls at home.
a perfect and healthy snack.
this recipe is yummy, raw, vegan, gluten-free, sugar-free and dairy-free,
no-bake and super fast and easy to make (5 minutes!)
i'm in love!

here is my ecipe, inspired on this one
i used carob, replaced dates for dry figs (soaked),
added pumpkin seeds,
(you can change them for your favorite nuts)
and got rid of coconut.
maca powder for me is optional,
and i sometimes add some sesame seeds
i soak all the nuts during the night before
and dried them a little before processing.

here is the recipe for these Energetic Raw Balls:
-----------------------------------------------------------
1/3 cup raw walnuts

1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup raw almonds
1/4 cup chia seeds
1 cup pitted dry figs (soaked), (about 7 big figs)
1/2 cup almond flour
1/3 cup carob powder (sub cocoa or cacao powder)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 tsp maca powder
 (optional)
2 tbsp water


..
Combine all ingredients into a food processor and process
until well combined and crumbly.
Roll into balls.
.
here is the original recipe
here is another recipe that look yummy and healthy too:
Crunchy Raw Protein Balls
and these from my Pinterest too: lemon or ginger balls

you you enjoy them as much as we do :)
happy week!!


últimamente en casa somos adictos a estas super bolas energéticas
(se llamarían albóndigas?)
están buenísimas, son super fáciles y rápidas de hacer, además de sanísimas.
un dulce que te llena de energía para el que no necesitas
cocinar ni encender el horno, son más!

os paso mi receta que es una versión de ésta otra,
utilizo algarrobo en lugar de cacao, higos secos (previamente remojados)
en lugar de dátiles, almendra molida en lugar de coco,
y añado pipas de calabaza.
las primeras que hice no llevaban mac, y estaban también riquísimas,
a veces también añado sésamo.
suelo dejar los frutos secos en remojo la noche anterior
y luego los seco un poco antes de añadirlos al procesador/robot de cocina.

la receta de las super bolas energéticas:
----------------------------------------------------
1/3 taza de nueces
1/4 taza de pipas de calabaza
1/4 taza de almendras
1/4 taza de chía
1 taza higos secos (previamente remojados) (de 7-12, según tamaño)
1/2 taza de almendra molida
1/3 taza de algarrobo (puede ser cacao)
1 cucharadita de extracto de vainilla
1/2 cucharadita de maca en polvo (opcional)
2 cucharadas grandes de agua

Combina todos los ingredientes en el procesador hasta
que se haya formado una masa.
Haz bolitas con las manos.

estas son otras recetas que también tienen muy buena pinta,
en ésta: Bolas crujientes de proteínas, hay fotos del proceso.
Bolas de limón y bolas de jengibre.
espero que os animéis a probarlas
y las disfrutéis tanto como yo ;)
feliz semana!!

LOVE energy balls! I eat way too many of them at my desk.
Yours sound scrumptious, and I like the idea of soaking the nuts first (I always practically kill my food processor trying to grind the nuts). Your little man is the perfect model! Love his shorts and purple shoes :)

Hi Eva! I use coconut, raw cacao, coconut oil, dates, prunes, sunflower seeds and whatever else I can lay my hands on! I keep them in the freezer to stop myself from eating them all at once! Definitely trying your recipe next time. My recipe is here:
