Ingredients

• 1.5 cups medjool dates
• 1 cup raw almonds
• 0.5 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
• 0.5 cup pistachios (shelled, unsalted)
• 0.5 cup dried apricots
• 1 tablespoon orange zest
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Pit the medjool dates if they are not already pitted. Place the dates, raw almonds, shredded coconut, pistachios, and dried apricots in a food processor.

Step 2

Pulse the mixture in the food processor for 30 seconds, or until the ingredients begin to break down into smaller pieces.

Step 3

Add the orange zest, ground cinnamon, sea salt, vanilla extract, and water to the food processor.

Step 4

Blend the mixture until it comes together into a sticky dough-like consistency. If the mixture seems too dry, add an additional tablespoon of water and blend again.

Step 5

Using clean hands, scoop out approximately 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a compact ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture until you have about 16 energy balls.

Step 6

Optional: Roll each orb in additional shredded coconut or finely chopped pistachios for added texture and visual appeal.

Step 7

Place the Oasis Orbs in an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before enjoying. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
