Ingredients
  

  • Medjool Dates - 1.5 cups
  • Raisins-1.5 tablespoons
  • Sesame Seeds 2/3rd cups
  • Coconut Oil - 1 teaspoon

Instructions
 

  • Toast the sesame seeds until slightly brown/beige
  • Run them through a blender to form a powdery mixture
  • Soak the dates and raisins in clean filtered water for atleast 3-4 hours (the more the better)
  • Rinse the water away and put them on a heated skillet
  • Saute them until the moisture goes away – 10-15 seconds
  • Add the sauted dates to a food processor to form a sticky mushy paste
  • Add the paste to the skillet again and mix in the blended sesame powder
  • Keep skillet on a medium low flame
  • Mix the 2 ingredients together
  • You will realize that they dont blend in too well hence we add 1 teaspooon of coconut oil to help with the incorporation
  • Turn off the gas after about 15 seconds to prevent the sesame from over burning
  • Remove the mixture on a pan and flatten the batter with the help of a back of a spoon or a small bowl or just your hands
  • Set the mixture aside for 25 minutes
  • After 25 minutes pull out small portions into balls
  • Serve
  • For best effect store the bombs in an airtight container in the fridge overnight
  • Above everything else, ENJOY!
