Raw Cacao Energy Bites (Vegan and Grain Free)

This basic recipe can be used as a base to create an imaginative assortment of energy bites with your favorite add-ins. It’s literally three ingredients: Dates, Nuts and Cacao! You can mix it up by adding the optional ingredients below and if it doesn’t make sense with the combinations you pick, leave the cacao out and maybe add in the vanilla extract. Eat these as a snack on the go (I like to carry them in my purse and in my backpack when I mountain bike!), or they can be a healthy dessert. So here we go:
