Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup rice flakes ( here, I have used the red aval/poha)
  • 1/4 cup almond meal optional ingredient- added it for a bit of protein content.
  • 3/4 cup Dates deseeded.
  • 1/4 tsp green cardamom powder

Instructions
 

  • Clean and de-seed the dates to get 3/4 cup loosely packed.
  • Clean and dry roast the aval/rice flakes on a pan. this burns really fast so keep an eye on it and mix often.
  • Once crisp, remove from heat and set aside to cool
  • Add all the ingredients into a food processor and pulse till the dates are broken down and it is all evenly mixed.
  • Remove a small quantity of this mix and press it down to form lime sized balls.

Notes

Swap the almond meal for roasted cashews or pumpkin seeds. Pulse them first to get a fine powder and then add them to the mix so as to get an even bind.
