## Why It Fits

Date-nut balls are a practical sweet hit that's slower-releasing than a biscuit; making a batch takes 10 minutes and removes the 3 pm "where are the biscuits" moment.

## Ingredients

- 200g medjool dates, pitted
- 100g almonds
- 60g rolled oats
- 2 tbsp cacao powder
- 1 tbsp almond butter
- Pinch salt

## Steps

1. Blend almonds and oats to a rough flour.
2. Add dates, cacao, almond butter, and salt; blend until it clumps.
3. Roll into 12 balls; refrigerate 30 min to firm.
4. Store refrigerated up to 2 weeks or freeze.
