1 tbsp chia seeds or flax seeds
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
Pinch of salt

For Rolling: Desiccated coconut, cocoa powder, or extra crushed nuts

Chef's Tip: For perfectly textured energy balls, make sure your dates are soft and sticky. If they've dried out, a brief soak in hot water will revive them. For variety, try adding ¼ cup of shredded coconut to the mixture, or roll the balls in crushed pistachios for a beautiful finish. These are perfect for lunchboxes, pre-workout snacks, or a healthy sweet treat!
