These homemade Kernel Power Balls with pumpkin seed protein are the perfect healthy alternative to conventional sweets – packed with
nutrients, protein and natural sweetness. The base of mixed nuts, Medjool dates and high-quality pumpkin seed protein provides long-lasting energy and a pleasantly nutty flavour. Finished with a
crunchy date-chocolate glaze and decorated with chopped pumpkin seed kernels, these energy balls are not only a visual highlight, but also ideal as a snack for sports.
