1/2 cup almonds

cup almond butter
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)
1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional) I actually didn't add this time
In a food processor, combine the pumpkin seeds, almonds, chia seeds, flaxseeds and oats. Process until all ingredients are grounded up. Transfer mixture to a bowl.Rinse the food processor and add the medjool dates, pumpkin puree and almond butter. Process until a smooth, creamy consistency is reached.Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon until well combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.Place batter in the fridge for about 30 mins to chill.Form batter into 1-inch balls and roll half of them in shredded coconut (can omit if you like), coating balls completely.Transfer to a baking sheet and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.Keep chilled, or freeze in an airtight container for a few months (though I guarantee they won’t last that long!).
