Ingredients
- ROLLED OATS - I use Trader Joe's rolled oats which are
- COCONUT - To keep this recipe really healthy, I recommend using unsweetened shredded coconuts.
- DATES (pitted) - I recommend Medjool dates because they have a sweet, chewy, and rich flavor.
- LEMON - Use both the zest of the lemon and the juice. The tartness of the lemon balances the sweetness of the coconut and the dates.
How to Make Lemon Date Balls
- Add one cup of rolled oats and 1 cup shredded coconut into a food processor. Use the pulse function of the food processor and blend until the oats and coconuts are finely chopped.
- Zest a lemon (you will get about one tablespoon of lemon zest) and juice the lemon. Add both to the oat-coconut mixture.
- Pit, chop, and ¾ of a cup of dates to the bowl.
- Combine everything with your hands and begin to form small, bite-sized balls. Depending on the desired size, you can expect to get 8-12 balls.
- Serve or store in an air-tight container for up to 7 days.
