Step by step
Instructions
The biggest time-saver is to make the balls the night before. They keep in a closed container in the fridge for 4 to 5 days. If you want to eat them just before training, make them smaller and don’t add nut butter so they aren’t unnecessarily heavy.

Variants and alternatives
Replace the orange juice with a strong espresso for a cocoa-coffee flavor. Substitute part of the coconut with ground almonds if you want a more filling snack for longer activity. For a sweeter version add half a teaspoon of honey, though dates alone are usually enough. Without a blender, chop the dates very finely and work the mixture by hand; the balls will be coarser but still work.
