Equipment
Method
- In a food processor, combine the pitted Medjool dates, almond flour, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Pulse until the mixture is well blended and sticky.
- If your mixture is too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
- Once ready, scoop about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball or shape it into a small candy bite.
- Roll each candy bite in the coconut flakes to coat them evenly.
- Place the coated bites on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- Once all bites are shaped and coated, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Serve chilled, garnished with a sprinkle of extra coconut for added flair. Enjoy!
