Follow The Directions

01

Step

Place dates in a small bowl; completely cover with hot water. Soak until softened, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain; reserve soaking liquid.

02

Step

Combine soaked dates, almonds, coconut, walnuts, 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds, coconut oil, vanilla, cardamom, cinnamon, and salt in the bowl of a large food processor; pulse several times until mixture forms a soft 'dough,' scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. If mixture is too dry, add reserved soaking liquid, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

03

Step

Turn dough out onto a piece of parchment paper; roll into a 10-inch-long by 1 1/2-inch-wide log using lightly greased hands. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds evenly on all sides of dough log, pressing them in gently. Wrap log in parchment paper; refrigerate until firm, at least 1 to 2 hours.

04

Step

Cut log into about sixteen 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to eat.

For a richer flavor, toast the almonds and walnuts before adding them to the food processor. Be careful not to burn them!
Feel free to experiment with other spices such as nutmeg, ginger, or allspice to create your own unique flavor profile.
If you don't have coconut oil, you can substitute it with another neutral-tasting oil like grapeseed or avocado oil.
These rolls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
