Christmas Sweets
Ingredients
125g Walnuts
125g ready-to-eat dried dates
125g ready-to-eat dried figs
A pinch each of ground cinnamon and grated nutmeg
Instructions
Place the walnuts, dried fruit and spices into a food processor and process until it forms an homogenous mass. Add a few drops of filtered water if necessary to hold it together.
Remove the blades from the food processor and then take walnut-sized amounts of the mixture and roll between the palms of your hands to form balls.
You could either store them in the fridge as they are or roll them in chopped or ground nuts, desiccated coconut, try corn flour to make them look like snowballs or Green and Black’s Organic Cocoa Powder, as we’ve done.
Wheat-free, Gluten-free, Dairy-free, vegan, can be made nut-free.
Can be made in advance and stored in the fridge.
