Method

1. 1

   Add the walnuts, pecans, raisins, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt to a food processor, and process until mostly broken down.

   
2. 2

   Finely grate the carrot and add it to the food processor along with the zest from the orange, then pulse the mixture a few times until all the ingredients have combined. Avoid over pulsing the ingredients because it will turn into a mulch!

   
3. 3

   Remove the blade from the food processor, take an 1/8th of the mixture into your hand and roll it into a ball. Repeat until you have 8 balls.

   
4. 4

   Transfer the desiccated coconut to a small plate and roll the balls in the coconut until fully coated.

   
5. 5

   Place the energy balls in an air-tight container, leave them to sit in the fridge for an hour, then either serve immediately or store in the fridge for 3-5 days.
