Equipment

  • food processor

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 3/4 cup walnuts
  • 1 carrot grated
  • 1/2 cup dates soaked in water and drained if they aren't soft
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/8 tsp ground cloves

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients into the bowl of a food processor. Process until finely crumbled. It's ready when you can pinch it together and it stays together.
  • Taste the mixture and add additional spices if you like. You can also add a tablespoon of agave or maple syrup but we didn't need it.
  • With your hands, grab about a tablespoon of mixture, squeeze it and then roll it into a ball. Repeat with the rest of the mixture. Put in an airtight container and set in the freezer for at least 15 minutes. After that, store in the fridge or freezer, your choice. We like them frozen.
