Date Pecan Balls Recipe
Posted by Dr. Ben Kim on Apr 28, 2004
Ingredients:
2 cups of raw pecans
1 and 1/2 cups of dates
Spring or filtered water
Directions:
Soak pecans and dates for 1-2 hours in water. Drain well and blend together in a food processor or strong blender until it turns into a coarse paste. Use your hands to form paste into bite-size balls. Enjoy these delicious treats right away, or save them in a container in the refrigerator for later. They keep well for up to three days in the refrigerator.
Save these date pecan balls for occasional treats, as dates are extremely concentrated in sugar and can contribute to health problems if eaten in large amounts.
