Almond Breakfast Balls
/You’d think there might be a limit to how many energy bars a person can eat…. well I don't appear to have found it yet! These Almond Breakfast Balls are nutrition packed and delicious!
Dates make the perfect sweetener and binder all in one, the flavour is subtle with tones of caramel and the perfect companion to the almonds in all their various forms. In this recipe we have used our homemade almond butter (our recipe here!) but you can use our almond paste we sell in store too. Chopped whole almonds and fine almond flour are in them too! We've also added chia seeds and pumpkin seeds for good measure! The perfect breakfast on the run, or a satisfying snack at any time of day.
