Tahini Walnut Bites
Tahini Walnut Bites are sweetened with plump dates, a hint of cinnamon, and are high in plant-based protein for a boost at any time of the day!
Equipment
- Food processor
- Small cookie scoop
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw walnut halves or pieces
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (I like Garden of Life Grain-Free Smooth Vanilla)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup pitted Medjool dates
- ¼ cup raw tahini
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine walnuts, protein powder, cinnamon and salt in food processor and blend until fine. Add dates and process until finely chopped. Mix in tahini and vanilla and add a little water if needed to bind everything together.
- Using a small scoop, form the mixture into balls, rolling with your hands until smooth. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator. Makes about 2 dozen balls depending on scoop size.
