Description

Ingredients

• 2 cups medjool dates, pitted
• 1½ cups pecans
• ½ cup rolled oats, gluten free certified
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 2 Tbsp maple syrup

Directions

• Place dates in food processor and process on high for about 45 seconds, or until a date ball begins to form.
• Add the pecans and process for another 1-2 minutes.
• Add remaining ingredients, scraping down the sides of the processor bowl, if necessary and process for another 1-2 minutes.
• Using a small ice cream scoop or 1 Tbsp measuring spoon, roll the mix into balls with your hands. You should end up with 25 balls from this recipe. Alternatively, you could place the mix into a 9 x 9 pan lined with parchment and cut into squares. Rolling these into balls is way less work though!
• Enjoy right away or pop into the fridge for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
• Store in a sealed bag or air-tight container in the fridge for up to a week.
