Ingredients

• 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons flax seeds (*)
• 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds (*)
• 10 Medjool dates ((1 cup/150 grams))
• 3/4 cup vanilla protein powder (**)
• 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon almond milk
• 1 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ginger
• 1 teaspoon cardamom
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon cloves
• 1/2 teaspoon allspice
• pinch of sea salt
• 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds (*)
• 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (*)
• 10 Medjool dates ((1 cup/150 grams))
• 3/4 cup chocolate protein powder (**)
• 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon almond milk
• 2 tablespoons cacao powder
• 2 tablespoons maca powder
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon
• pinch of sea salt

Instructions

1. Grind your seeds. Add to a blender (or whatever method you usually use) and blend until ground into a flour-like consistency. If needed, do in a few batches to ensure they are evenly ground.
2. Add dates to a food processor and pulse a few times to break down. Add in ground seeds and remaining ingredients. Pulse for 30 seconds or so until dough-like consistency forms. The batter should look a little crumbly, but stick together when you press on it. If too dry, add a bit more almond milk. If too wet, add a bit more protein powder or spices.
3. Using a tablespoon as a spoon, form into 28 equal-sized balls (makes for eating 2 balls per day). Each ball will be about 21 grams. You can also make larger seed cycling balls and form in 14 balls (42 grams each), eating one ball a day. Store in the refrigerator or freezer and eat 2 a day (if making 28 balls) for 14 days. Once finished, make the next phase!
