Protein snack balls

I always struggle with easy and healthy snacks to take to work. I always end up with either carrot sticks, a banana or a few nuts. I'm getting a bit bored with it so I decided to make something which is very easy to just take with you and they will ease your cravings and hunger for a little bit longer. I found the recipe for these on http://healthyyumyum.com.au.

Ingredients

makes about 15 balls

360 ml raw almonds

2 tbsp protein powder

2 tbsp raw cacao powder

12 fresh dates, pitted

1 tsp vanilla powder

1/2 tsp cinnamon

Water and/or coconut oil

Ground almonds and shredded coconut

Add the almonds, protein powder, cacao and cinnamon to the food processor and blend until a crumbly mixture. Add in the dates, vanilla and process again. Then slowly add a small amount of water or coconut oil and blend so the mixture comes together. Roll about 2 tbsp of mixture into a ball, then roll in a mixture of coconut and ground almonds. Store covered in the fridge.
