- ¾ cup raw whole almonds
- ½ cup sweetened dried cranberries
- ¼ cup pitted dates
- ¾ cup old-fashioned rolled oats (or certified gluten-free oats, if needed)
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
Add the almonds, cranberries, and dates to a large food processor. Pulse on high for 10–15 seconds until everything is broken into smaller pieces.
Add the oats, tahini, lemon juice, and maple syrup to the processor. Blend for 40–60 seconds until the mixture forms a thick paste.
Using your hands, roll the mixture into 25 small balls (about 1 tablespoon each). Press firmly to help them hold together.
Chill the balls in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes if they feel too soft. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
