The cleanest sweetest treats for your soul, packed with 3 simple raw ingredients that will give other energy bars a run for their lives. This recipe is created by Noura El-Imam of Yogalates Bliss in Dubai. She’s delighted to share her simple yet extremely delicious and healthy raw truffles to you that cost little but are packed with healthy nutrients and without unwanted additives and excessive bad sugars.

INGREDIENTS:
*3 generous heaped tablespoons of dark cacao powder.
*1.5 cups of pitted soft medjool dates
*1 tsp of melted coconut virgin oil

DIRECTIONS:
** Blend away the above ingredients for a couple of minutes in a food processor (until they clump together). Scoop, roll the mixture into small balls with wet hands. Then roll the balls in anything your heart desires over baking paper. I coated them with cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, walnuts + ground coffee + pure maple syrup, rose essence, vanilla essence, cacao nibs, more dark cacao powder…cool them in the fridge for 10 minutes before engulfing them. If you can wait that long ofcourse!

Other innovative coatings can be sesame seeds, caramelized almonds or walnut pieces, pistachios, roasted rose petals, saffron, goji berries, maca….you name it! Play around, get creative!
