  • 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes plus 3/4 cup for rolling
  • 3 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup to make vegan)

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a food processor, add the coconut flakes; pulse to grind into a finer texture (but don’t pulverize!).

  3. Add the almond flour, chopped dates, tahini and honey to the food processor with the remaining coconut.  Process until you get a firm, sticky dough.  Roll the dough into 1-tablespoon balls and then roll in the reserved coconut flakes to coat completely.  Store in the refrigerator.
