Most people would call these energy balls but Bertie and Lizzy (Holly’s younger children) call them Rolling Balls and the name has stuck!
First I put the following in a coffee grinder and ground up:
- sesame seeds
- pumpkin seeds
- cacao nibs
(Sorry, again no quantities, but quite a few sesame seeds and less pumpkin and cacao.)
Then I put the ground mixture in to the food processor along with
- 6 fesh dates
- handful currents
- handful walnuts
- a few sunflower seeds
and blended until it formed a thick consistency. Now roll the mixture into balls and eat.

Just made a batch of these with a few variations (because of what I had in the house): I substituted sunflower seeds for the cacao nibs, pecans for sunflower seeds and cashews for walnuts…I also added a squeeze of juice from a 1 inch piece of grated ginger. They turned out really well – great thing to have at band practices when the energy drops down low (so long as I can resist sharing them all out to the rest of the band and ending up with none left!…)
