Ingredients

1 cup almond flour
1/2 cup almond butter
1/3 cup finely chopped soft pitted medjool dates
1/3 cup finely shredded and chopped carrots
1/4 cup sweetened shredded coconut flakes
1 teaspoon vanilla
pinch of pumpkin pie spice

Instructions

In a medium sized mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the almond flour, almond butter, dates, and carrots. (Alternatively, you can use a food processor and pulse several times until combined.)
Using a cookie scoop, shape into 1 1/2-inch balls, making sure they're compact so they don't crumble. (Depending on the size of your scoop, you should end up with 14 balls.)
Pour coconut flakes into a shallow dish and gently roll balls so the coating sticks.
Transfer to the refrigerator in a single layer to hold their shape, then you can transfer them all to an airtight container.
Keep stored in the fridge and enjoy whenever you need a quick boost of fuel!
