Ingredients

  • 2 cups lightly packed soft, fresh pitted dates (400 g)
  • 1/2 cup hemp seeds 80 g
  • 1/2 cup walnuts 60 g
  • 1/2 cup sesame seeds 75 g
  • 1/2 cup pepitas 75 g
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 2 tbsp tahini 30 g
  • 2 tbsp water if needed
  • 1/2 cup toasted millet or quinoa

Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients to a food processor and mix until it forms a thick dough. Pulse in the toasted millet if you're using.
  • Roll the dough into 16 equal sized balls, then shape the balls into cookies. Place in the freezer for 2 hours then enjoy. Store in the freezer or fridge. They're amazing straight from the freezer so I'd recommend storing them there.

Notes

You can either shape the dough into cookies, roll in into balls or press into a parchment paper-lined baking pan and then lift out and cut into energy bars.
Nuts and seeds can be mix and matched up to 2 cups total.
