Begin by placing 1 cup of pitted Medjool dates into your food processor. Pulse the dates for about 1-2 minutes until they break down into a sticky, smooth paste. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure an even consistency.

Once the date paste is ready, dampen your hands slightly to prevent sticking. Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them between your palms to create bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter.

Place ⅓ cup of unsweetened shredded coconut in a shallow bowl. Take each date ball and roll it gently in the coconut until fully coated.

If you’re looking to incorporate a delightful crunch, grab some almonds. Gently press an almond into the center of each coconut-coated roll.

You can choose to serve your rolls right away or refrigerate them for about 30 minutes to firm up.
