Ingredients
- 1/2 cup almonds
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1/4 cup reduced fat coconut unsweetened fine shredded (plus a little extra for rolling)

Instructions
-
In a food processor, blend the almonds and walnuts together. Pulse a few times in the very beginning.

Add the dried fruit and coconut. Blitz again.
-
Add the rest of the ingredients. Blitz for about 10 seconds.
-
On a parchment-paper lined baking tray, roll ball mixture into golf/ping-pong sized balls.
-
Roll the energy balls in the bowls of rainbow superfood powders... Red = crushed freeze-dried strawberries and raspberries; Yellow = turmeric; Green = matcha powder; Blue = Blue Majik

Place the tray with the energy balls in the freezer for about 10 minutes.
-
The energy balls can be enjoyed immediately or stored in the fridge for a couple weeks (but they probably won't last long in there anyways).
