Makes 12
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw ground almonds/almond meal
- 1/8 tsp ground cloves
- 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- scant 1/8 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp sea salt or Himalayan pink salt
- 1 tbsp molasses
- 1/4 cup pitted dates (about 6 medium), roughly chopped
- 1 to 2 tsp unsweetened almond or hemp milk
- 1 tbsp raw shelled hemp seeds (hemp hearts)
Preparation
- In a food processor, pulse almond meal, spices and salt until evenly mixed.
- Add molasses and dates, and process until combined.
- Transfer dough into a small bowl and add almond milk as needed, one teaspoon at a time, as you use the back of a spoon to press the mixture together.
- When the dough clumps and comes away from the sides of the bowl, pinch off small pieces and roll into 1-inch balls.
- Coat some, or all, of your dough balls in raw hemp seeds.
