Freezing Time:2 hours
Total Time:2 hours 15 minutes
Servings: 30 slices

Ingredients

  • 500 grams date spread
  • 400 grams mixed nuts (cashews, walnuts, pecans, almonds, hazelnuts, brazil nuts, pistachios, etc.)
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground dried ginger (or cardamom, pumpkin spice, etc.)
  • Desiccated coconut (for coating)

Instructions

  • Toast the nuts in a dry pan until fragrant, stirring often.
  • Mix the date spread, spices, salt, and toasted nuts in a bowl. If you don't have date spread, check the recipe tips for an alternative.
  • If the mixture is sticky, oil your hands lightly.
  • Shape the mixture into a log and wrap it tightly in clean film. I made a log with a 6 cm (2.5 inches) diameter, but you can make 2 smaller ones.
    recipes with dates
  • Roll the log in the coconut or your chosen topping (see tips for ideas).
  • Wrap it again in clean film and chill in the fridge for 2 hours.
  • Using a large, sharp knife, slice the log into discs, about 1 cm (½ inch) wide.
  • Store in the fridge or freezer and enjoy!
