Servings: 24 bites
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
For the bites:
- 70 g unsalted pistachios
- 50 g cashew nuts
- 35 g rolled oats
- 220 g Medjool dates, pitted
- 2 tbsp La Vida Vegan pistachio spread
- 5 g matcha powder

Preparation:
- Add the pistachios, cashew nuts and rolled oats to a food processor. Pulse briefly until you have a coarse crumb.
- Add the dates, La Vida Vegan pistachio spread, matcha powder, ground flaxseed, vanilla extract and salt. Blend until you have a firm, sticky mixture.
- If the mixture is too dry, add a small amount of maple syrup or 1 extra date and blend again.
- Roll the mixture into small balls with your hands. If desired, flatten them slightly to create a bite shape.
- Melt the dark chocolate with the coconut oil in a bain-marie or carefully in the microwave.
- Dip the tops of the bites into the chocolate or coat them completely.
- Sprinkle with the chopped pistachios and a little coarse sea salt.
- Place in the fridge for at least 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. You can also freeze them.
