Chocolate Peanut Butter Walnut Energy Bites

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup raw walnuts
  • 12 pitted dates
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons all-natural peanut butter (or other nut butter)

Instructions:

  1. Process the Walnuts:
    • In a food processor, pulse the raw walnuts until they are finely chopped. They should have a crumbly texture.

  5. Form Energy Bites:
    • With clean hands, take small portions of the dough and roll them between your palms to form small bite-sized balls. You can adjust the size based on your preference.
