Carrot cake energy balls
Servings: 20 pieces
Equipment
- food processor
Ingredients
- 80 g carrot
- ½ tsp ginger (just a touch if necessary)
- 130 g walnuts
- 70 g dates (pitted)
- 50 g of oatmeal
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Weigh all ingredients and peel the carrot and cut into large slices.
- Depending on how good your food processor is, the pieces should be a bit smaller.
- Peel the ginger as well or scrape the skin off with a spoon.
- Now put the coarse ingredients such as carrots, dates and walnuts in the blender and chop them up beforehand.
- Then add the remaining ingredients, i.e. ginger, oat flakes and cinnamon and continue mixing.
- Now the mass should hold together when you squeeze it between your fingers. If not, add a few more drops (really just drops!) of water and mix again.
- Now shape the mixture into balls and store in the refrigerator or eat straight away.
- Depending on the size, you will get about 20-24 pieces.
Notes
If you don't really like the taste of ginger, you can limit yourself to a pinch of ginger powder or just a very small piece of fresh ginger. But this spicy note goes very well with the cinnamon and the sweetness of dates and carrots.
