Ingredients
Nut and Date Mixture
- 3/4 cup raw almonds
- 1/4 cup raw cashews
- 1 cup dates (Medjool, pitted)
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
Add-ins
- 2 tbsp chocolate chips
Instructions
- Make date brownie mixture: Add raw almonds, raw cashews, pitted Medjool dates, unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and sea salt to a food processor. Process until the ingredients are well combined and the dough begins sticking together.
- Add chocolate chips: Add chocolate chips to the mixture and pulse 1-2 times. This will break the chocolate chips into smaller pieces without completely pulverizing them, adding texture to the bites.
- Form into bites: Slightly wet your hands to prevent sticking, then scoop about 1 rounded tablespoon of the dough per bite and roll into balls using your hands.
- Serve or store: Enjoy your no bake date brownie bites immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week for a quick, healthy snack.
Notes
- Using Medjool dates ensures natural sweetness and a soft texture.
- Slightly wetting your hands prevents the dough from sticking when forming bites.
- Store brownie bites in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and texture.
- You can substitute chocolate chips with chopped nuts or dried fruit for variation.
- This recipe is naturally gluten free and vegan-friendly.
