Author: Kim

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Medjool dates, pitted*
  • 1 cup raw almonds
  • 1 cup Blue Diamond Blueberry Almonds, or other fun flavor
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk

Instructions 

  • Place dates in the food processor and process until they have broken up and come together into a ball.
  • Break up date ball with hands and add in almonds and protein powder.
  • Process for about a minute, scrapping down the sides as needed.
  • Add almond milk.
  • Process until mixture becomes packed together. If it doesn't do this, add in 1 more tablespoon of almond milk.
  • Roll mixture into about 27 balls, by pressing it together with your fingers and shaping into a sphere shape.
  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for several weeks.

Notes

My dates were very sticky and soft, but if your dates are older and dried out, soak them in hot water for about 20 minutes and then drain before using.
