Author Notes
I adapted this recipe from several ones I saw online to have in hand as a healthy snack or when the sweet tooth kicks in. They are quite delicious and made with unprocessed ingredients. They are also fun to make, for me at least :) —Jona @AssortedBites
Ingredients
-
1 cup
nuts ( I used hazelnuts and peanuts)
-
2/3 cup
dried apricots
-
3-4 pieces
medjool dates
-
Assorted toppings ( cocoa, matcha, crushed nuts, seeds)
Directions
-
Roast the nuts for a few minutes until they become fragrant.
-
When using hazelnuts and peanuts rub off all the skin ( or try at least) before putting them into a food processor. Pulse on high for a couple of minutes, then add dates and the apricots and keep pulsing.
-
When it all comes together nicely, start adding shape to the mixture. In the end, roll them into cocoa, nuts or matcha ( or anything nice you can think of). As a final touch use a sieve to sprinkle cocoa and matcha evenly.
