Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup almond raw
  • 1 cup cashew nuts raw
  • 1/2 cup coconut unsweetened, shredded
  • 1 cup Medjool dates about 10, pitted
  • 1 cup dried cherries

Instructions

  1. Process nuts: Place almonds, cashews and coconut into food processor and pulse until they are chopped into small pieces. Place nut mixture in a bowl and set aside.
  2. Process dates: Put dates into the food processor and pulse until a paste forms (the dates will probably form into a sticky ball).
  3. Add nuts and remaining ingredients: Add nuts back into the processor with the dates and add in cherries. Pulse until everything is well combined.
  4. Form balls: Once mixture is combined, use your hands (or a small/medium cookie scoop) to form the dough into balls, using about 1 Tablespoon of dough for each ball. Enjoy right away or store for later.
  5. To Store: Place balls into a sealed storage container and store in the fridge for 1-2 weeks or the freezer for 3 months.

Notes

  • Hard/dry dates: If your dates are hard and dry, you can soak them in warm water for 10-15 minutes to soften. Just drain them well before using.
  • Crumbly dough: If your dough seems too crumbly to stick together after processing even when squeezing it together with your hands, you can try adding a couple more dates or adding 1 teaspoon of water at a time until the mixture starts to hold together well enough to form into balls. See note above.
