My husband really loves health foods. It's annoying and guilt-inducing from my standpoint but we are probably better people for it. He only tried these rolls from Froberg Farms because they had the word 'date' and 'coconut' in them. Both superfoods, don't you know. He went on a full-on bender when sugar, or any fancy word for sugar, was missing from the ingredients list. As we spend way too much money at Froberg Farms anyway, we made them ourselves.
Coconut Date Rolls
Adapted from Shutterbean
- 1 pound pitted dates
- 1 cup slivered almonds, toasted
- 1 cup unsweetened dried coconut flakes, some reserved for rolling
Blend in a food processor until paste is form. It takes a long time and if your patience is wearing, add a teaspoon of water at a time while processing.
Roll paste into tablespoon sized balls. Rolls the balls into the reserved coconut. Top with almond if you are feeling fancy, but all of mine fell off.
