Ingredients
For one serving.
- Medjool dates(Dattes Medjool)100 g
- Cocoa powder(Poudre de cacao)2 tbsp
- Oat flour(Farine d'avoine)50 g
- Almond butter(Beurre d'amande)2 tbsp
- Coconut flakes(Flocons de coco)20 g
Preparation
Step by step, from pantry to plate.
Pit the dates if needed and place them in a bowl of warm water for 5 minutes to soften, then drain well.
Add the dates, cocoa powder, oat flour, almond butter, and coconut flakes to a food processor or mixing bowl.
Blend or mash everything together until a sticky dough forms. If using a bowl, keep pressing and mixing until the dates break down evenly.
Scoop out small portions and roll them between your hands into bite sized balls.
Roll each ball in a little extra coconut flakes if you like, pressing gently so they stick.
Place the balls on a plate or tray and chill them in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before serving.
Good to know
Wet your hands slightly before rolling to keep the mixture from sticking.
