Coconut & Cacao Nut-Free Energy Balls

These energy balls are a staple for anyone needing a quick snack on hand. They’re nut-free, kid-friendly, and ideal for lunchboxes, afternoon pick-me-ups, or those moments when you want something sweet but still nourishing.

Dates bring natural sweetness, cacao adds depth, and sunflower seeds provide a gentle crunch. The texture is soft and satisfying, and they keep well in the fridge for days.

Ingredients
Medjool dates – ½ cup (approx. 8)
Sunflower seeds – ¼ cup
Desiccated coconut – ¼ cup (plus extra for coating)
Cacao powder – 2–3 tbsp (adjust to taste)
Tahini – 1 tbsp
Akesi Probiotic+ BASE – 6 scoops
Vanilla extract – 1 tsp

Optional
Protein powder – 1 tbsp
Collagen powder – ½ tbsp

Method

  1. Soak the dates in warm water for 10 minutes to soften. Drain, reserving 2–3 tablespoons of the soaking water.
  2. Blend the dates first until smooth, then add the remaining ingredients and blend until the mixture comes together.
  3. If needed, add a little of the reserved water until the mixture is moist but not sticky.
  4. Roll into balls, coat with coconut if you like, and chill in the fridge.

They’ll keep well for up to 7 days and are easy to grab when you need something quick and nourishing.
