Ingredients
  • 1 cup Medjool dates (200 grams)
  • 1 ounce freeze dried strawberries (or other berry)
  • 1 cup peanuts (I used cocktail peanuts)

Instructions
  1. First soak dates in hot water for 5-10 minutes if they are dry. Process dates in food processor until they form a sticky ball.
  2. Next, add the dried strawberries and peanuts and process until mixture starts coming together. Don’t over-process or mixture will become greasier as the peanuts process into a nut butter.
  3. Roll into balls!
  4. Makes about 14 bites, depending on size.
  5. Store in refrigerator for up to a couple weeks, or the freezer for up to a couple months.
