Julie says of these maca energy balls, “Easy to make and deliciously full of natural ingredients, the combination of maca and brazil nuts tastes almost like peanut butter … with a coconuty embrace of course. The results are irresistible.”

The flavor of these vegan energy balls is incredible. They are so easy and really delicious. They’re really cute flattened like raw cookies, so I’ve photographed them both ways.
