Ingredients
1 cup cooked black beans, rinsed and drained
6–8 soft dates, pitted (adjust for sweetness)
1 tbsp ACTIVIST 850+MGO Raw Mānuka Honey — or more to taste
2 tbsp nut or seed butter — tahini, almond, cashew, or sunflower seed
1 tbsp ground flaxseed
1 tbsp ground chia seeds
2 tbsp hemp seeds (plus extra for rolling)
2 tbsp cacao powder
½ tsp cinnamon
Pinch of sea salt
Method
Add all ingredients to a food processor and blend until smooth and sticky, scraping down the sides as needed.
If the mixture feels too dry, add a small splash of water or a bit more tahini. If it’s too wet, add a spoonful of flax or cacao to firm it up.
Roll into small balls (about 1 tablespoon each).
Coat in hemp seeds, cacao powder, or shredded coconut if you’d like some texture.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set.
Notes
- Store in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze for longer.
- They’re high in fibre, healthy fats, and plant protein, making them perfect as a post-movement snack or mid-afternoon pick-me-up.
