thing from step back welcome back to
another freestyle Friday every single

so grab that pen and paper let me show you
what I got
mmm feeling sweets today complete today
look at those date a I'm gonna coke yeah
yeah yeah um super super stoked about
today's epi I know those rhymes are
getting a little weak at the end still a
little early for me and driving a lot
welcome back to the episode of freestyle
Friday how's the intro really good okay
perfect I quickly want to introduce if
you guys are not familiar my name is a
Minh I live in a little Sprinter van and
this is our kitchen and we make recipe
videos every single Friday so today
we're coming at you with a highly
requested dessert now Beck and I don't
usually eat dessert Beck's behind the
camera she's gorgeous you can check out
some other videos to see her smiling
face when we do eat desserts it's kind
of like we just want a little bite at
the end you know like a little sugar hit
to get you going and if you're feeling
that vibe stay tuned I'm gonna teach you
how to make two energy balls they are
stupid easy no refined sugar they have
like four ingredients five ingredients
and you can sub things out if you don't
like certain ingredients you can't screw
this one up let's jump into it the first
type of ball I'm gonna show you is a
date base you guys have never had dates
before I don't usually eat them on their
own but they are delicious they're super
super sweet so we're not gonna have any
sugar to this one it's just gonna be
straight up the sweetness from the dates
awesome to start we're gonna grab about
a cup of dates and if your dates are
hard you can soak them in a little bit
of hot water for 10 minutes and then
just make sure you drain them off really
well
these ones aren't too bad they're pretty
soft now we're gonna have a hell of a
time here at the studio because we only
have a blender I would recommend if
you're at home and you have an S blade
mixer ting you know food processor
definitely use that this is going to be
an absolute disaster cannot wait to
clean it with cold water later we're in
a band we don't have hollow okay so I'm
gonna start by just shredding those down
clear it from all the sides because it
will start to stick the Vitamix killed
it a little surprised by that but that
is the texture you want this first
energy ball we're actually gonna build
it right in the blender we're gonna
start with a little bit of peanut butter
about maybe three tablespoons
somebody doesn't like peanut butter or
has an allergy I would recommend almond
butter cashew butter hemp butter pumpkin
seed butter any kind of butter
substitute 30 chocolate chips you can
count them out if you'd like 34 and a
little bit of oh action yeah hop and
then we're gonna put some hemp seeds
because like in a day you can't screw
this up like I said so if you've got
flax seeds throw flax and you got
chia-chia I got ham that's one that I'm
just putting like a anymore
boom boom bang we can throw it back in
there and let the blender do the work
keep your life easy peel it off the
sides this is why I would recommend the
s-blade this will work it just takes a
little bit more time just tasting real
nice one more time looks a little bit
like a crumb but once you roll that
together the date will stick it real
nice make sure you got nice and clean
hands unless you're just eating them
yourself and it doesn't matter I would
just grab like a little pinch like that
Cui's it nice and tight look at that
with your one hand and then you've got
this little ball packed full of protein
and goodness and natural sweetness I
think that's a really good size
something you can just pop in your mouth
after dinner you could bring a few of
these for lunch snack on them throw the
day great way to just get a little bit
of energy I'm gonna leave these two back
to get rolling and I'm gonna start with
my other ball I'm giving you two recipes
in one video guys smash that thumbs up
first you're gonna make noise you need
to leave
you can sit stay for 20 minutes so for
this one is even easier you don't need a
blender you're gonna use your hands for
your balls babe so to start for this one
we're gonna use a maple syrup pond a
maple and we're gonna do a boat boat a
boot I would say third over pail if you
don't have maple syrup or you can't
afford maple syrup that's cool you could
use any kind of substitute agave coconut
nectar anything you can find or you
could use regular sugar as well but
maple syrup is amazing we're Canadian we
can't afford it but we bought it so
we're starting with mixing all of our
wet as you can see peanut butter we're
gonna do about a 1/2 cup or basically
what's left in this jar you're not gonna
mess this up if you you know over or
under do an ingredient you'll be able to
try it and say hey look that's not sweet
enough or too much salt or whatever I'm
gonna go ahead and just whisk that up
these are total freestyle you guys
thought of yourself the last following
taste that Wow okay so the show's over
Rebecca and I are just gonna spoon this
into each other's mouths next we are
going to dump in some flax seed can by
ground or full-si this is golden flax
and all I did is just busted that down
in a blender two tablespoons of flax mix
our own we're gonna use some nice thick
rolled oats
feel free to sub if you're gluten free
for gluten-free oats I'm gonna put a cup
Buttercup in there and cocoa nut just
under a cup of coconut shreds we're just
gonna have a few dark chocolate chips
having a look at the consistency here it
looks fantastic but I think when I go to
actually mix those together it is going
to be a little bit too firm so what I'm
gonna do is just bust up a little bit of
oat flour my trusty dirty blender and
just a little bit of oats into a powder
and that's gonna help mix everything
together
that's old flour not only is this recipe
super easy to make it's oddly satisfying
to run your hand through sticky oats
so maybe that's another reason to try
this one about and I'm just kind of
needing it because I've heard someone
else say the word needing before and I
always wanted to use it I don't know if
I'm gonna be able to roll these so much
like I didn't really roll the other ones
but I kind of shape them into balls I
think that's easier the best thing to do
with your hand just call up your friends
Bruce Bruce and say hey Bruce Bruce
please clean my hands oh don't tell Mom
bris all right we've rolled our balls
they look amazing
so we got about 20 out of the chocolate
chip coconut ones and then the date
balls maybe a little bit less but of
course you could double triple quadruple
the recipe we've had like ball parties
where we've smashed out like 6070 balls
and then split up amongst the family get
a bit of an assembly line going super
fun thing it's very easy guys like this
is such an easy dessert great option to
show up at a friend's place if they
invite you over and yeah they're
absolutely delicious once again I would
recommend putting them in the fridge
even them cold serving them cold and you
can top them however you like as well I
hope you enjoyed the video I knew you
were asking for desserts I've got a lot
of exciting stuff coming up now that
we're back in Toronto I feel like we'll
have more time and energy and get a
little bit more creative on the show

little bit of peanut butter and now you
