Sorry for my disappearance as of late! Student teaching has quiet literally sucked the life out of me. And I mean this in the best way possible. I don’t think I’ve been so excited for school days since I was in 2nd grade. In fact, I’m starting to hate my weekends now. That’s when I do all my lesson plans 😛
Anyway, to help power my way (as well as yours) through another week, here’s a snack recipe!
Power Balls (Paleo)
Ingredients:
1 cup nut/seed butter
1/4 cup honey
2 tbsp shredded coconut
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
pinch stevia
2 tbsp coconut flour
Optional: chocolate chips and/or raisins
Directions:
Combine all ingredients (except coconut flour and chocolate chips/raisins). Once mixed together, add in the coconut flour and chocolate chips/raisins and roll dough into balls. These can be stored on the counter or in the fridge.

I think the best part of my weekend was buying cashew butter at the local store! I fell in love with it last summer and use it to top anything from pancakes to oatmeal. I’m so glad your recipe uses cashew butter, because I feel like it’s always sliding under the radar with peanut butter and almond butter getting all the attention. Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe, and I can’t wait to see more in the future! Plus, your photography is so lovely 🙂

Thank you so much for your sweet comment! 🙂 Cashew butter is simply awesome! I started eating it last year as well after I bought some from our local Amish Market. Enjoy the recipe! 🙂
