Phase 2- Must test for Dates
Ingredients:
Dates pitted (preferably Majdool) – 2 LBs
Seeds: pumpkin, sunflower seeds, flax – 1 cup
Nuts: almonds – 1 cup
Unsweetened dry, shaved coconut – 1/2 cup
Ghee – 1-2 tbsp
- In a blender blend the dates until they are of a semi puree consistency. Chop all the nuts into small pieces.
- In a saucepan on low heat, mix melted ghee and add blended dates. Stir until it becomes a paste and you’re able to fold it with a spatula.
- Remove the dates and add the chopped nuts & seeds while it is hot and mix everything with a spatula until all the seeds and nuts are evenly mixed in.
- Let the mixture cool down a bit (not completely room temperature).
- Spoon out mixture and roll into balls with hands.
- Take the dry coconut and spread it out on a dish or paper plate and roll the date roll in the coconut so that it is somewhat covered with coconut.
- Place balls in a freezer safe storage contained lined with parchment paper. Store in the fridge for a couple of hours. Afterwards, balls will be ready to eat.
