If you fancy something sweet and lean, date and walnut candies are just the thing for you. They are also extremely easy to make with just a few ingredients.
All you need for the candies are dried dates, walnuts, and, if desired, coconut flakes and/or cocoa sticks.
Some time ago, I bought a package of dried dates, I think it was 300 g, which was enough for me to make candies several times.
If the dried dates have pits, they must be removed. The dates should be pureed or mashed well. Form balls from the pureed dried dates. Roll the balls first in crushed nuts so that they stick to the soft dates and you have a nice spherical shape, then roll them in coconut flakes or flour. I didn't have any cocoa, but if I did, I would have added it too.
I haven't given exact weights, but let's say that one serving could be 50-70 g of dates, 50-70 g of walnuts, and a little coconut flour.
