Ingredients
100 g (1 cup) dates, pitted, and soaked for
10 minutes
80 g (½ cup) almonds
50 g (¾ cup) desiccated coconut
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
1 tbsp gingerbread mix/Chinese Five Spice
40 g (¼ cup) buckwheat, raw
20 g (¼ cup) goji berries, dried
Method
Combine dates, almonds, desiccated coconut, and spices in a high-speed food processor and mix until smooth.
Add the buckwheat kernels and goji berries by hand, form into a ball, and then roll out between two parchment paper sheets. Refrigerate for 20 minutes for easier handling.
Use a cookie cutter of choice (e.g. star/reindeer/santa) and cut out desired shapes. Alternatively you can simply form little balls with your hands.
Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.
