Ingredients
Gingerbread Bliss Bites
- 1 cup pitted dates
- 1 cup pecans
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon cloves
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons almond butter (or nut or seed butter of choice)
Shredded Coconut for rolling
Instructions
- Place dates in a food processor and pulse several times or about 30 seconds until roughly chopped or broken down into small bits.
- Add the pecans and pulse several times to chop pecans into smaller pieces and mix with the dates. (do not over mix)
- Add molasses, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and salt and pulse a few times to mix.
- Add almond butter and pulse several times to combine. Note: when all the ingredients are mixed together, the pecans will still be in small bits, not a paste -- do not over process or oils will start to break down and mixture will become too "wet"
- Roll into 1-inch balls and roll in shredded coconut.
- Keep stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator or freezer.
