Ingredients

Servings
  • 10 date about 1 cup, Medjool, pitted
  • 1 cup pecans raw
  • 1 cup coconut unsweetened, shredded
  • 1/4 cup chocolate protein powder
  • 2 Tablespoons cocoa powder or cacao
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats old fashioned
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla optional
  • pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  1. Toast coconut if you’d like: Preheat oven to 350°F, spread shredded coconut onto a baking sheet and bake for 5-8 minutes or until coconut is golden in color. Be sure to watch the coconut closely because it has the tendency to burn easily. Let cool.
  2. Place all ingredients (dates, pecans, coconut, protein powder, cacao powder and oats) in a food processor and pulse until everything is combined and pecans are the size of crumb.
  3. Add vanilla and sea salt and pulse once more. If the dough seems a little dry, add a little water, one 1 teaspoon at a time. Scoop dough from food processor and form into small balls using your hands. Place balls into a sealed storage container. The bites will keep in the fridge for about a week or in the freezer for 1-2 months.
