Raw Explosion Energy Balls!

I won't lie ... I think most people agree the best part (as well as the downfall) of raw food is the desserts. Honestly, I love raw desserts more than most cooked desserts. Lots of coconut oil and cacao? Hellerrrrrr! These Energy Explosions are a perfect pick-me-up for that mid-day slump. They're quick and easy ... (just how some people like it) ðŸ˜³

1 C Pumpkin Seeds 

1/2 C Cacao Nibs

1/4 C Unrefined Virgin Coconut Oil

3 TBSP Maca Powder (Peruvian)

1-2 TBSP Maple Syrup

1/2 tsp Salt

Put the ingredients into the food processor, process for about 30 seconds or until ingredients start to stick together, roll into balls, and WALLAH! They could also be rolled in Maca Powder, Cacao Powder, or Coconut. This recipe works with either dry roasted or raw Pumpkin Seeds. I used dry roasted because it's what I had. I recommend raw ... and if using the latter, I would add a bit more Salt. Enjoy! And let me know what you think by leaving comments below. Peace Earthlings!
