# Ingredients:
→ Base
01 -
100 grams Medjool dates, pits removed
02 -
100 grams carrots, grated super fine
03 -
200 grams old-fashioned oats
→ Nuts and Seeds
04 -
14 grams flaxseed, ground
05 -
50 grams chopped walnuts
→ Flavoring and Coating
06 -
A pinch of salt
07 -
0.5 grams ground ginger
08 -
0.5 grams nutmeg, ground
09 -
2 grams cinnamon powder
10 -
5 millilitres vanilla essence
11 -
20 grams shredded coconut, plus more for rolling
# Steps:
01 -
Spread the finished bites on some parchment. Stick them in the fridge. Let them chill for about half an hour so they don’t fall apart.
02 -
For an extra hint of coconut, roll each ball in some more shredded coconut if you’re in the mood.
03 -
Scoop out twelve even chunks. Roll them in your hands to turn them into neat, tight balls.
04 -
Now dump in the grated carrots, flax, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, plus the coconut. Give it all a whirl until you can’t see loose bits in the bowl. Scrape down the sides whenever needed.
05 -
Toss the dates into the processor next. Run until everything turns sticky and blends together.
06 -
Start by tossing your oats and walnuts in a food processor. Blend until the stuff looks like fine crumbs.
# Notes:
01 -
A food processor works best here. If you only have a blender, do a little bit at a time. The texture might be a bit different.
02 -
Keep these bites in a sealed container in your fridge, and they’ll stay fresh for about 7 days.
