HONEY ALMOND DATE BALLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Grind the almonds in a food processor until finely chopped. Move chopped almonds to a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes, until fragrant and just a shade darker.
• Coarsely chop dates and add to food processor. Pulse until finely chopped and dates form a ball. Remove from processor to a bowl.
• Add half of the ground almonds to the dates, leaving the reserved almonds on the baking pan to roll the balls in once formed.
• Add the honey to the date and almond mixture. Mix together until evenly mixed and smooth.
• Coat your hands with some vegetable oil so mixture does not stick too much.
• Form mixture into 1-1/2" balls. Roll each ball in ground almonds to coat well. Place in a sealed container until ready to eat.
• Any leftover chopped nuts for coating can be sprinkled over the balls to keep them from sticking together when moving.
• Will keep for up to 5 days at room temperature or up to a week in refrigerator.
