Method

1. Remove the stones from the dates.
2. Use a blender to blend the dates, the pecan nuts and half of the maple syrup together. If your blender is not powerful enough, chop the dates and pecans finely and work into a paste using a blender, coffee grinder or similar implement.
3. Knead in the almond butter, cacao powder, lucuma, ground almonds, sesame seeds and the rest of the maple syrup by hand.
4. Tip: if you are finding it hard to bring the mixture together, add a little coconut oil, orange juice or extra maple syrup to add moisture.
5. Roll into balls about 4cm across.
6. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
