Ingredients

PB and J

1 cup dried dates , chopped
½ cup dried cranberries (or strawberries)
3 tablespoons powdered peanut butter
5 tablespoons almond flour (ground almonds)
4 tablespoons oat flour (gluten-free if needed)
1 tablespoons hemp seeds
hemp seeds , extra for coating (optional)

Chocolate Coconut

1 cup dried dates , chopped
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
2 tablespoons almond flour (ground almonds)
4 tablespoons oat flour (gluten-free if needed)
2 tablespoons shredded coconut , unsweetened
shredded coconut , extra for coating (optional)

Instructions

For either recipe, soak the chopped dates in hot water for 10 minutes, then drain out the water. I boil a kettle for the "hot" water (the hotter the water, the softer the dates will be).
Place the dates with the remaining ingredients for that recipe (excluding the hemp seed or coconut for coating) into a food processor. Blend until smooth. This takes some time as you need to scrape the edges of the food processor down a few times to ensure everything is incorporated.
Remove the mixture from the food processor and roll into balls.
If coating the bites with hemp seeds or coconut, sprinkle a layer of the coating onto a plate and roll the bites around in the coating until covered.
Store in the fridge or freezer. Will last in the fridge for up to one week and in the freezer for up to 2 months.
