Almond Coconut And Date Bites Recipes

COCONUT ALMOND ENERGY BITES

Steps:

• Soak the dates in a bowl with hot water and allow to soften for just a few minutes. Remove the dates from the water and wipe them with a kitchen towel.
• Pulse 1/2 cup of almonds in a food processor if you want the energy bites to have a smooth texture and 3/4 cup of almonds if you want a more crunchy texture. You want them to break down into smaller pieces. If you used 3/4 cup of almonds, remove 3 tablespoons of pulsed almonds to a bowl, set aside.
• Add the 1/2 cup of shredded coconut, almond butter, sea salt, and any optional seeds, along with the dates to the food processor and continue to pulse until a soft dough ball forms. Taste and add additional salt to taste. Remove the dough ball to a bowl and add the reserved 3 tablespoons of pulsed almonds (if using). Roll the dough into small balls - you'll get about 12-16 pieces. Then roll the energy balls in the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded coconut. Place on a baking sheet and allow to harden in the refrigerator or freezer. Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator or freezer.

3-INGREDIENT COCONUT DATE BITES

Steps:

• Add dates to a bowl of a food processor and pulse until large crumb like consistency. If the mixture turns into one large ball, use your fingers or a spoon to pat it down.
• Add almond butter and continue to pulse until small crumbs/thick paste is formed.**
• Form the mixture into 1-1 1/4 inch balls and place on a parchment lined sheet pan.
• Pour the coconut into a small shallow bowl and roll the date balls in the coconut.
• Store in airtight container at room temperature, away from heat.

COCONUT-DATE BITES

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse the dates to create a thick paste. Add the walnuts, vanilla and 1/4 cup of the coconut and pulse until incorporated and a thick paste forms again. Using a spatula, transfer the date mixture to a medium bowl.
• Pour the remaining 1/4 cup coconut into a separate small, shallow bowl.
• Using a spoon, scoop out about 2 tablespoons of the date mixture and, with clean hands, work into a small rectangular bar 2 to 2 1/2 inches by 1 inch (or roll into balls). Coat the date bar with the coconut in the bowl, delicately pressing the coconut onto the bar. Continue with the remaining date mixture and coconut.
• Serve in mini paper cupcake liners. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
