- 8 Medjool dates
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin coconut oil
- 1/8 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
- 1 cup almond meal you can use blanched, raw, or you can grind your own
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1 teaspoon dark honey optional (try neem or avocado honey)
- Smoked Maldon sea salt for finishing
In a food processor or high-speed blender, blend pitted dates with the vanilla extract until a smooth paste forms (about 3-5 minutes)
Scrape down the sides of the bowl, and add coconut oil and fine sea salt and blend until well-incorporated.
Finally, add the coconut and almond meal and process until a ball forms (only a minute or two)
Form into 1 tablespoon balls, drizzle with honey and top with flaked sea salt. Refrigerate what you don’t eat right away.
