Ingredients

  • 200g pitted Medjool dates

  • 1 tsp ground ginger

  • Pinch of nutmeg

  • 1 tbsp blackstrap molasses

  • 30g Pulsin Vanilla Whey Protein

  • Pinch of salt

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Directions

  • Blend together all ingredients in your food processor to form a thick dough that is soft and holds together when you press it between your fingers. You can add a touch of water if necessary to make the dough a little softer. The result will vary depending on how soft your dates are!
  • Roll the mixture into 15 - 16 balls. Store in the fridge for up to one week in a seal tight container.
  • You could also coat these in chocolate for more of a truffle vibe!
