Begin by placing the pitted Medjool dates in a food processor. Pulse until a smooth and sticky paste forms.
Add the almond flour, lemon zest, lemon juice, and a pinch of sea salt to the dates. Process again until everything is well combined and the mixture holds together.
Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
With damp hands, shape the date mixture into small bite-sized balls, approximately 2.5 cm in diameter.
Roll the formed bites in the shredded coconut until well coated. Place them on the prepared baking tray.
Once all the bites are formed, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Serve cold, and enjoy! Optionally, drizzle with melted dark chocolate for an extra touch.
