Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

20-25 dates, cut in halves
½ cup oat bran
1 cup almonds, sliced
3 tablespoon chia seeds
½ cup white chocolate chips
⅓ cup peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
2 tablespoon maple syrup
½ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoon water
⅔ cup shredded, dried coconut

Method

Add all ingredients except for coconut into a food processor using the "S" blade.
Pulse until mixture is blended. You may need to pulse and then pause and spread out mixture more evenly to the food processor and then pulse again. It does not need to be completely pureed as you want to avoid a paste.
Transfer mixture with a spatula into a medium bowl.
On a cookie sheet with parchment paper, roll the mixture into small sized balls and then roll in dried coconut.
Once all date bites are completed chill in the refrigerator for ~1 hour or more.
