Notes
- You can also chop the dates and then add them to the blender. If you have a powerful blender you can add them directly.
- Instead of almond butter, you can add any nut butter. Peanut butter or even cashew butter works well.
- If you prefer a nut free butter sunflower seeds butter too works well.
- Adding a pinch of salt is optional but it elevates the taste so highly recommend adding it.
- Feel free to decorate the date balls as you prefer.
