Ingredients:
- 4 dates, pits removed
- 1 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1/2 cup pecans
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut
- 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grind dates in the food processor until a paste forms, about 40 seconds. Add walnuts and pecans and blend until very finely chopped, about 35 seconds. Add baking soda and salt and pulse a few more times.
Warm the coconut oil so it is in liquid form. With the food processor running, drizzle it into the batter with the egg and vanilla. Stop mixing as soon as the egg and oil are blended in.
Scrape the batter into a bowl and stir in coconut and chocolate chips by hand. The dough will be sticky and wet. Drop 12 portions of the dough onto a cookie sheet, then flatten slightly with your fingers.
Bake 15 minutes, or until nicely browned.
Even my husband, who has an incredible sweet tooth, loves these.
Wow I can hardly believe it!
ReplyDeleteHave you any nutritional information about the recipe?
Yes, I through the ingredients into fitday. The recipe makes 12 cookies and each cookie contains approximately 205 calories, 17g of fat (yay!), 11g carbs (although this is measuring with dark chocolate chips, I actually used an 85% dark chocolate lindt bar and cut it into chunks so the carbs will be less) and 4.5g of protein. In all the percentages were 70% fat, 21% carb and 8% protein.
