Add the dates and cashew nuts to a food processor and process until the mixture is sticking together. Add the shredded coconut flakes and season the mixture with a pinch of salt and cinnamon.

Form the mixture into balls. Scoop the dough with your hands and form into small balls using your hands. Place on a baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Transfer the date energy balls onto a plate and enjoy with tea or coffee!
