How to Prepare Lemon Turmeric Energy Balls [Vegan]

  1. Drain soaked dates, reserving water in a small bowl. Place dates, de-seeded lemon and vanilla extract in a food processor. Process until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. If mixture is too thick to blend, add reserved soaking water, 1 tablespoon at a time. These turn out best if you keep added water to a minimum.
  2. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
  3. Add almonds, oats, chia seeds and turmeric to food processor and blend. Add to wet mixture and stir until combined using a wooden spoon.
  4. Scoop with a small spoon and roll into 1 inch balls. If desired, roll balls into ground almonds or shredded coconut.
  5. Place balls on a parchment or wax-paper lined baking sheet.
  6. Freeze balls until firm, for approximately 1 hour. Transfer to an air-tight container and store in the refrigerator.

Notes

When stored in the refrigerator these keep for up to 2 weeks. For longer-term storage, place in the freezer.
