Equipment

  • Food Processor

Ingredients

The Dough

  • 100 g Mixed Nuts Whatever You Fancy
  • 100 g Dates Seeds removed
  • 1 tbsp Cocoa Powder Sugar-Free
  • 1 tbsp Coconut Oil To help Stick

Additional Fluff - Pick One or More

  • 5 tbsp Puffed Amaranth
  • 5 tbsp Rolled Oats
  • 3 tbsp Chia Seeds

Coating

  • Coconut Flakes
  • Cocoa Powder Sugar-Free

Instructions

  • Separate the dates from their seeds, blend together for a couple of seconds with the nuts and the cocoa powder.
    The mass should be crumbly, but stick together when you press it.
    If this is not the case, your dates might be too dry and you can add some stickiness with a scoop of coconut oil.
  • Add some fluff to the mass (I love puffed amaranth, but oats, chia or sesame seeds are excellent as well) and stir it shortly on low speed. We don't want to blend our new ingredients, we just want to mix them in.
  • Prepare 2 soup plates or small bowls and fill in some cocoa powder and coconut flakes.
    Take a bit of your nut-dough and shape it into a ball between your rotating palms. Toss the ball into either the cocoa powder or coconut flakes
