ALMOND TAHINI DATE BALLS

Very Middle Eastern and very tasty. A somewhat sophisticated brunch treat if you will, and would also make awesome finger food for tea or a dinner party. Especially if it's one of those where the meal is light but hors d'oeuvres are heavy. And can you believe this awesome treat is healthy and vegan? I couldn't! For some ideas, try a mix of Chinese red dates (I used 100%) with traditional dates. Put in a dash of ground pistachio and/or cardamom, how about a teensy bit of honey? There's a lot more I plan on doing with that huge thing of almonds I bought at BJ's. Found on the internet somewhere, don't remember where. If this is your recipe or you know where it came from, just drop me a line so I can give credit where it is due.

Time 20m

Yield 15 balls, 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups sliced almonds (I just used whole almonds)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons tahini
18 medium dried dates (They MUST be pitless. I use pitless Chinese red dates, which are small, so I used about 25)

Steps:

  • Grind almonds and cinnamon in food processor until finely chopped.
  • Add tahini and continue to pulse.
  • Add dates and chop until all blended in (be careful with pits!).
  • Form into 1" balls and refrigerate.
  • Can be eaten chilled or at room temperature, and they also travel well so they make a good brown-bag dessert.

TAHINI AND ALMOND BALLS (VEGAN FRIENDLY)

I had no peanut butter to make traditional no-cook peanut butter balls and came up with this NA*ME-inspired recipe using what I had on hand: tahini and almond butter. The amount of ingredients is estimated. Some oats are gluten-free and I know that Bob's Red Mills' oats are.
