These cheerful, pink-hued energy balls are bursting with fruity goodness, natural sweetness, and a satisfying nutty crunch. Made with strawberries, almonds, dates, and sultanas, they’re a deliciously wholesome snack that travels well and fuels you through anything—be it a mountain trail, a long ride, or a long afternoon at your desk wishing you were on a mountain trail.

The combination of strawberry powder and vanilla brings a nostalgic, almost dessert-like flavour, while the almonds add protein, fibre, and that satisfying chew. They’re free from added sugars, rich in natural energy, and sturdy enough to survive the bottom of a rucksack or gym bag.

Make the Strawberry Almond Energy Balls

Note: Unless you’ve got a blender with the brawn of a small tractor, you’ll want to mill the almonds first and then split the whole lot into two batches and blend the two batches separately.

Mill the almonds in a food processor or high-speed blender until coarsely ground.
Divide all ingredients in half, including the ground almonds.
Blend each batch: Add one half of the ground almonds, dates, sultanas, strawberry powder, and vanilla powder to your blender or processor. Blend until everything is finely chopped and starts clumping together.
Repeat with the second batch.
Combine both batches in a large bowl and knead slightly if needed to bring everything together.
Roll into 40g balls – roughly golf ball size.
Store in the fridge in an airtight container. They’ll keep for months and improve in texture over time.
