No-Bake Walnut Date Bites: Delicious & Healthy in 5 Minutes! pen_spark

Ingredients:

    • 200 grams walnuts
    • 280 grams pitted dates (about 1 cup)
  • Optional:
      • 30 grams sesame seeds (for coating)
      • 90 grams white chocolate, melted
      • 15 grams dark chocolate, melted

Instructions:

    1. Prep the Base: In a food processor, grind the walnuts until they resemble fine crumbs. Add the pitted dates and blend until a sticky dough forms. Scrape down the sides as needed.

    1. Shape the Bites: Scoop out small portions of the dough and roll them into bite-sized balls.

    2. Get Creative (Optional): If desired, coat the balls in sesame seeds for a delightful crunch.

    3. Chocolate Drizzle (Optional): Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the prepared balls on the sheet. In separate bowls, melt the white and dark chocolate (you can use a microwave on low power, stirring frequently). Drizzle the white chocolate over the balls, followed by a decorative drizzle of dark chocolate.

  1. Set & Enjoy: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes, allowing the chocolate to harden. Once set, enjoy your delicious and healthy Walnut Date Bites!
