Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup medjool dates pitted
- ¾ cup walnuts
- ¼ cup pumpkin seeds
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Optional Coating Ideas:
- Cocoa powder
- Powdered sugar
- Sprinkles
- Chia seeds
- Shredded Coconut
Instructions
- Remove the pits from the dates and add them to the food processor along with the walnuts, pumpkin seeds, ground flax seeds, hemp seeds, vanilla extract, and salt. Process until the mixture turns into a big dough ball. At first, it will turn to crumbles and eventually clump together like cookie dough. It may take several minutes—keep going until a solid dough forms.
- Divide the dough into 12 even pieces and roll each piece into a ball with the palms of your hands.
- If desired, dip each ball into your coating ingredient of choice and roll until fully covered.
