Protein Ladoos / Date and Coconut Bliss balls



It is our family ritual to go to the library and borrow books every alternate Saturday. I recently realized that it has been an amazingly long time since I have bought any books for myself. The library in my suburb is also very well stocked. You get each and every book you need and can also place a request for ones you can't find. In case you are wondering why I am writing about a library in this post. The recipe I am going to share today is from one such book that I borrowed. This now is a regular feature in my kitchen. We use it not just for school lunch but also to satiate the mid-morning sugar craving when it kicks in. 


 Ingredients:

- Pitted Mejdool Dates - 1 cup
- Desiccated coconut - 1 cup
- Chia seeds - 1/2 cup
- Sunflower seeds - 1/2 cup
- Sesame seeds - 1/2 cup
- Pumpkin seeds - 1/2 cup
- Vanilla Extract - 1/2 tsp
- Honey (Optional) - 1/4 cup
- Cinnamon - 1/2 tsp

Method:
- Place all ingredients in the food processor bowl.
- Whisk until smooth and dates are very finely chopped.
- Divide into equal portions.
- Roll each portion into a ball.
- Roll over extra coconut (optional).
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
