Salted Coconut-Caramel Energy Balls

Ingredients

  • 4 dozen pitted dates (about 3 cups)
  • ¾ cup creamy sunflower seed butter
  • 6 tablespoons warm water
  • 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups rolled oats 
  • 6 tablespoons coarsely chopped toasted pecans
  • ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. Combine dates, sunflower seed butter, water, salt and vanilla in a blender. Blend until mostly smooth with a few small bits. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add oats and pecans; stir well.
  2. Place coconut in a small bowl. Scoop a tablespoon of the date mixture and roll it into a ball. (Dampen your hands to prevent sticking.) Roll the ball in the coconut to coat. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Enjoy!
