Dietary Choice
Ingredients
- 2 cups walnuts, or other nut/seed of choice
- 2 cups soft dates, pitted, or chopped dried fruit of choice
- 2 tablespoons nut butter of choice
- 2 teaspoons fresh grated (peeled) ginger
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut or raw cacao powder (optional)
Directions
- In a large food processor, process the walnuts until crumbly. Add in the dates, nut butter, vanilla, and sea salt and process again until a sticky, uniform batter is formed.
- Scoop the dough by heaping tablespoons, then roll between your hands to form balls. Arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, then place in the freezer to set for at least an hour before serving. Store the balls in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week, or in the freezer for an even longer shelf life.
- For a gourmet-looking truffle, you could also roll them in shredded coconut or raw cacao powder!
