Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 80 grams 3 ounces or ½ cup dates
  • 100 grams 3.5 ounces or ⅔ cup dried apricots
  • 60 grams 2 ounces or ½ cup walnuts
  • 15 grams 0.5 ounces or 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds
  • 30 grams 1 ounce or ¼ cup almonds
  • 30 grams 1 ounce or ¼ cup sesame seeds

Method
 

  1. If dates or apricots are dry, soak them in warm water for 5–10 minutes, then drain well.
  2. Add all ingredients to a food processor. Pulse until the mixture becomes sticky and starts to clump.
  3. Scoop out and roll into bite-sized balls. If the mixture is too sticky, refrigerate briefly or lightly wet your hands.
  4. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  5. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.

Notes

  • Use Medjool dates for a richer, softer texture.
  • Toasting the nuts and seeds adds a deeper, nuttier flavor.
  • Add-ins like chia seeds, shredded coconut, or cocoa powder can enhance both taste and nutrition.
  • These bites are naturally vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free.
