Recipe
Vegan, Gluten-Free
Ingredients
- 5-10 Medjool dates
- 250mL boiling water
- 1⁄2 tsp sea salt
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tbsp peanut butter
- 8 tbsp any nut meal or chopped nuts (macadamia, almond, Brazil nut)
- 2 tbsp desiccated coconut
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
- 1 tsp hemp seeds (if you have them)
- 4 tbsp cacao nibs, crushed small in mortar & pestle (or use cacao powder or desiccated coconut)
Method
- Pull the dates apart and remove the pits.
- Cover with boiling water and leave to stand for 10 mins.
- Combine all other ingredients except cacao nibs in a bowl.
- Drain the dates, add to the bowl and mix by hand, breaking up the dates to form a thick paste. If the mixture feels too wet, add extra nut meal, desiccated coconut or seeds.
- Roll into balls, then coat with cacao nibs, desiccated coconut or cacao powder.
- Store at room temperature or in the fridge for a firmer texture.
