Is it bad to mention Christmas in November?! Well tough if it is because today I am sharing my snowball recipe, which is just perfect for the upcoming festive season.
If you're like me don't like to spend too much time in the kitchen then this clean eating snowball recipe is for you. It's healthy, it's festive-ish, and best of all, it's super simple and quick. They are almost better than mine carrot protein balls...almost!
These delicious treats are made with just 5 basic ingredients… cashew butter, ground almonds, oats, desiccated coconut and date nectar. Bish bash bosh! If you don't have date nectar then use maple syrup or whatever liquid sweetener you find in your cupboards.
These not only taste amazing but are full of nutrients and healthy fats. I used traditional porridge oats, but if you are after a gluten-free recipe, opt out for the gluten-free version. Make sure you run them through a blender until you have a flour-like consistency, otherwise the snowballs won't have the perfect texture once set.
Here's the clean eating snowballs recipe

How easy and yummy is this snowball recipe? It's a perfect little afternoon treat or they will look very nice at your Christmas table. Get your kids involved too as my 8-year-old Sofia made these easily on her own, but used hazelnut butter to make them into Nutella snowballs.
As always please, if you make this recipe share it with me either on my Facebook,Twitter or Instagram. I would love to see it! Hashtag #HediHearts
