Ingredients
  • 1 cup raw almonds
  • 20 medjool dates, pitted
  • ½ cup ground flax
  • ½ cup raisins
  • 12 dried apricots
  • ¼ cup unsweetened coconut
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ⅛ teaspoon all spice
Instructions
  1. Place the almonds in the bowl of your food processor and pulse using the “S” blade until chunky. About three 5 second pulses.
  2. Add remaining ingredients and process until the fruit crumbles and mashes with the nuts.
  3. Check to see if mixture is done by pressing it together. If it sticks and there are no date pieces, get ready to roll!
  4. Roll mixture into 18 golf-ball-sized balls. Wrap in plastic wrap for quick access for lunches, or place in a bag and store in the freezer.
