INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup (160g) Pitted dates, finely chopped
  • ½ cup (85g) Almonds
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) Pumpkin seeds
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) Sunflower seeds
  • 4 tablespoons (70g) Raisins or cranberries
  • 2 well-rounded tablespoons (20g) Cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) Tahini
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) Carob syrup
  • ½ teaspoon (2g) Cinnamon

METHOD

  1. Place the almonds on a piece of non-stick baking paper and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let them cool.
  2. Place the dates in a bowl and cover them with tap water. Let them soak for 1 hour. Drain them and put them into a large blender.
  3. Add the almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, raisins or cranberries, cocoa powder, tahini, carob syrup, and cinnamon.
  4. Blend until you have a homogeneous mixture. If necessary, add a little of the soaking water from the dates or a little coconut or soy milk.
  5. Take about 20g of the mixture and shape it into round balls. Place them in paper truffle cups. Store in an airtight container for 1 week outside the refrigerator.
