Why Medjool Dates?

Medjool dates are not only delicious but also rich in essential nutrients. They are an excellent source of natural sugars, fiber, and essential minerals like potassium and magnesium. Incorporating Medjool dates into your diet can provide a quick energy boost and support overall health. This easy-to-make recipe is not only tasty but also packed with natural goodness.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Orchid Date's Premium Medjool dates, pitted
  • 1 cup raw almonds
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup almond butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • A pinch of sea salt
  • Optional: shredded coconut or crushed nuts for rolling

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Start by pitting our Premium Medjool dates if they aren't already pitted. Soak them in warm water for about 10 minutes to soften, then drain.
  2. Blend the Base: In a food processor, combine the almonds and rolled oats. Pulse until you get a coarse mixture.
  3. Add the Dates: Add the soaked Medjool dates to the processor. Pulse until the dates are well incorporated and the mixture becomes sticky.
  4. Mix the Flavorings: Add the chia seeds, unsweetened cocoa powder, almond butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt to the processor. Blend until the mixture is well combined and holds together when pressed.
  5. Form the Energy Bites: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture and roll them into balls. If desired, roll the balls in shredded coconut or crushed nuts for an extra layer of texture and flavor.
  6. Chill and Serve: Place the energy bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set. Once chilled, transfer them to an airtight container for storage.

Enjoy!
