                      Moroccan Brownie Bites

                      Published by Grace O
                      Brownie bites

                      Mind icon

                      You won’t believe these brownie bites are completely raw, vegan, and fruit-based! This recipe blends Medjool dates from Morocco with walnuts and cocoa powder to create a rich, chocolate treat that’s perfect for a special occasion, party, or holiday. Roll these bites in nuts or other toppings if you do not care for coconut—the possibilities are endless.

                      Benefits: Dates contain fiber, which lowers blood cholesterol, and potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure and is an important electrolyte. Walnuts contain fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin E, which supports healthy brain function. Cocoa is full of catechins that can help inhibit and fight cancer cells.

                      Yields 24 1-inch balls

                      Ingredients
                      2 cups Medjool dates, pits removed
                      2 cups raw walnut pieces
                      ¾ cup pure cocoa powder
                      ¼ teaspoon sea salt
                      1-3 Tbs. water, as needed
                      1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

                      Instructions
                      1. Place the dates, walnuts, cocoa powder, and salt in a food processor and pulse until a moist, crumb-like dough has formed.
                      2. Add water 1 Tbs. at a time until the mixture sticks together easily. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
                      3. Roll the dough between your hands to form small 1-inch balls.
                      4. In a shallow bowl, place the coconut flakes and roll the dough balls in them until fully coated.
                      5. Refrigerate for 30-60 minutes. Serve cold or at room temperature.
