ADVERTISEMENT

Melt the sugar-free white chocolate in a water bath, stirring occasionally. Once melted, mix in 160 g of coconut flakes until well combined.
Cover the mixture with cling film and refrigerate for 10 minutes to set.
In the meantime, place the almonds in boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes. Drain the water and peel the almonds.
Fry the peeled almonds in a frying pan until lightly toasted.
Once the coconut mixture has set, form small balls and place one almond in the center of each ball.
Roll each ball in the remaining 40 g of coconut flakes.
Place the balls in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to harden.
While the balls are chilling, prepare the vitamin tea: Zest one orange and steep it with the green tea in 1 liter of boiling water for 4-5 minutes.
Add orange juice to the brewed tea and serve hot.
Once the energy balls have hardened, serve them in paper molds and enjoy alongside the vitamin tea.

Serve the energy balls as a snack with your morning coffee or afternoon tea.
Pack the energy balls for a healthy on-the-go snack.
Pair the tea and energy balls as a light breakfast or brunch.
Enjoy the energy balls as a treat after a workout.
Cooking Tips:

If you prefer a different nut, you can swap the almonds for cashews or walnuts.
If you like your tea more intense, let the orange zest and tea steep for a bit longer.
You can also add a little honey or stevia to the tea for extra sweetness.
