Date Nut Roll
Chocolate free and vegan date nut salami roll. Perfect for Tu Bishvat celebrations as it has some of the 7 species mentioned in the Torah (shivat haminim) that Israel is blessed with.
Ingredients
- 20 pitted Medjool dates
- Handful shelled pistachios
- Handful slivered almonds
- Handful pecan nuts
For coating:
- 4 tablespoon unsweetend desiccated coconut
Instructions
- Place in a blender all the nuts and blend long enough to crush the nuts into smaller pieces but not completely, you still want to have some texture.
- Add the pitted dates and blend them all together to a unified batter.
- Transfer the date batter to a baking paper and place it in a row that you will shape soon into a log.
- Spread the desiccated coconut on the baking paper near the date batter and then use the paper to roll the batter on the coconut (like rolling sushi).
- Shape it with your hands to a nice roll.
- Make sure the whole roll is coated well.
- Wrap the roll with the baking paper and place in the freezer for 30 minutes to set.
- Take out the roll and cut to individual discs/cookies.
- Have a piece and enjoy!
