You could leave the desiccated coconut out as it’s just in the last step for decoration. Alternatively you could try almond flakes. Good luck! Roxy (So Vegan)
This recipe looks amazing! Do you think it can be made with a blender? And also do you think it could be good with another fruit? (such as kiwi, apple, lychee..)
Thanks!
Hi Rosalie, you could try in a blender but the mixture might be too firm to be processed. I think kiwi has too much liquid in it so the balls won’t hold. Apple could work if you shredded it first, and not sure about lychee- you’ll have to let us know about that one! Thanks, Roxy (So Vegan)
Fantastic recipe. . Love them and my daughter loved them too. I used frozen cherries and I added chia seeds to the recipe. They were Perfect! I will also add some ground flax seeds in my next batch.
I’ve made these about five times now and they never fail to disappoint. So easy and quick! I use glacier cherries so I can keep the ingredients in the cupboards to make on any occasion. Love them, thank you! 🙂

So good! Thanks for this recipe.
Awesome! Glad you like it x
Can you use frozen cherries? Its winter in Australia and Cherries are not readily available.
We haven’t tried it with frozen cherries but I don’t see why not. Let us know how it goes. Thanks Roxy (So Vegan)
I did and they were great!
Might be nice with blueberries if cherries aren’t available
Yes definitely worth a try! We love blueberries 🙂 Roxy (So Vegan)
What can be used instead of desiccated coconut? I’m not a big fun of the taste.

How many calories per energy ball?

Can I sub almonds or other nuts here? Cashews don’t agree with me. Thanks-
