Ingredients
•1 1/2 cups tightly packed Medjool dates, pitted
•1/3 cup creamy sunflower seed butter (or tahini)
•1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
•1 tbs of Ashwagandha or other adaptogenic herb. (omit if you’re giving to kiddos under 12)
•1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 1 tsp Ground Cardamom
*optional toppings to decorate: hemp hearts, rose, coconut flakes
Directions
1. Add pitted dates into a large food processor, then process until they form a sticky ball. Use a spatula to break up the date mixture a bit, then add in the sunflower seed butter, shredded coconut, and salt if using.
2. Blend again until a sticky batter is formed. Scoop the dough by tablespoons and roll them into balls.
3. Arrange them on a flat plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roll the balls in extra shredded coconut, hemp or rose, then place them in the fridge or freezer to firm up a bit.
Enjoy!
