Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Medjool dates (pitted)
- 0.5 cups Almonds (or nuts of your choice)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
Place the pitted Medjool dates in a food processor. Pulse until they form a sticky, smooth paste. Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides.
Add almonds (or your preferred nuts), vanilla extract, and salt to the food processor. Pulse again until the mixture is well combined and forms a thick, slightly chunky dough.
Scoop out approximately 1 tablespoon of the mixture at a time and roll it between your palms to form a small log or ball shape.
Spread the shredded coconut on a clean plate. Roll each date roll in the coconut until coated evenly.
Place the finished coconut date rolls on a plate or in an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Store leftover date rolls in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
