Coconut-Lime Energy Bites
['1 cup pitted dates', '1 cup rolled oats', '1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut or coconut flakes, plus extra for rolling', '½ cup macadamia nuts or cashews', '¼ cup hemp seeds', '2 tablespoons white chia seeds (black chia are okay, too)', '2 tablespoons unsweetened cashew butter', 'Zest and juice of 2 limes', '1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract', '½ teaspoon spirulina or chlorella powder (optional)', '½ teaspoon maca powder (optional)', '¼ teaspoon kosher salt']
In a food processor, combine all of the ingredients and pulse until the mixture is evenly chopped and beginning to stick together and form a ball. Transfer the “dough” to a medium bowl and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Using a small ice cream scoop, or about ½ tablespoon measure, portion the dough into balls. Roll each ball with your hands to make it smooth.
Sprinkle shredded coconut or coconut flakes onto a plate and roll the balls in it to lightly coat. Store the bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or the freezer for up to 1 month.
