The World’s Best Date Ball Recipe

DifficultyBeginner

This is a wonderful sweet treat that is filled with healthy goodness. It also only has 6 ingredients and is super easy to make, making it the World's Best Date Ball Recipe! Enjoy!

Yields1 Serving
Prep Time15 mins
 10 Dates (large)
 3 tbsp Raw Cocoa Powder
 1 tbsp Coconut Flakes
 100 g Raw Almond Nuts (you can add less if you prefer)
 1 tsp Chia Seeds
 4 tbsp Cashew Butter
 1 pinch Sea Salt (optional)
1

Blend the Dates (de-pipped), Raw Cocoa Powder and Salt together in your blender.

2

When the ingredients look nicely blended, slowly add the Cashew Butter and the Raw Whole Nuts to the blender. *Add a tablespoon of Cashew Butter and some of the nuts at a time, then blend a bit, and then add more. It can get quite sticky, so stop regularly to unstick the mixture from the sides of the blender with a little spoon. Blend until it looks like a good consistency, but don't overdo it otherwise you'll loose all the crunch.

NOTES: If it gets too sticky to manage, blend half the mixture at a time.

3

Once blended nicely, add the mixture to a bowl and work it for a few minutes with your hands.

NOTES: If you are using nuts that are already crushed, add them in now and work them in with your hands.

4

When the mixture is ready, roll your balls. Take a portion at a time, squeeze it in the palm of your hands to compress the mix, and roll into a ball. Lay them out on a breadboard or a plate.

5

When all your balls are rolled, roll each one in some coconut flakes until fully covered.

6

Put all your date balls in a covered container and into the fridge. Leave in the fridge for a day before eating (if you can wait that long!)
