Date Balls
sugar free, dairy free, wheat free but delicious
I used these date balls for the coals of Benjamin's birthday cake. But they also make and excellent treat for a lunchbox.
- Soak one block of pitted dates in some boiling water at least until the water is cool enough for you to stick your fingers in it. Drain and keep some of the water aside.
- Add 1 and a half cups each of coconut and oats plus a table spoon or 2 of tahini/peanut butter (choose one with no additives like the yellow bottle Black Cat brand)/any other seed or nut butter.
- Mix together in a blender or with your hands and add a little of the drained date water if necessary.
- Roll into balls and store in the fridge.
How easy is that?
