Method

step 01

In a large food processor fitted with an "S" blade, add the pitted dates, walnuts, coconut, vanilla extract, and salt.
Process briefly, until the mixture looks crumbly.

step 02

As soon as the mixture sticks together when pressed between your fingers, it's ready to roll into balls. Be careful not
to over-process the mixture, as it can become quite greasy when blended for too long.

step 03

Use a 1-ounce cookie scoop or tablespoon to scoop the mixture, then roll it between your hands to form balls.
(Sometimes you'll need to squeeze it first to stick together, then roll into balls.) Repeat the process with the
remaining mixture, until you've made roughly 18 date balls.

step 04

Use a 1-ounce cookie scoop or tablespoon to scoop the mixture, then roll it between your hands to form balls.
(Sometimes you'll need to squeeze it first to stick together, then roll into balls.) Repeat the process with the
remaining mixture, until you've made roughly 18 date balls.
