Raw Brownie Bites
Raw brownie bites are only 5 ingredients and take just 10 minutes to make for a healthy treat that’s perfect as an afternoon snack or anytime chocolate fix.
Yield: 10 -12 balls
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups walnuts
- 1 cup dates, pitted and chopped
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Place the walnuts in a large food processor fitted with a standard blade. Pulse several times until broken down. The walnuts should be in small crumbles.
- Add the chopped dates, cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, vanilla and salt to the food processor. Process until well combined and the mixture begins to clump, about 30-35 seconds.
- Wet your hands lightly with water then scoop up about 1 ½ tablespoons of the dough at a time and roll into a firm ball in your hands. Repeat until all of the brownie bites have been made. (You can rinse your hands and then lightly rewet halfway through if needed.)
- Enjoy immediately or chill before eating. Extra brownie bites will keep in the refrigerator, stored in a covered container, for up to a week.

Notes
Dates: I strongly advise cutting up your dates into small pieces after you remove the pit. It helps them break down more easily in the food processor without clumping and sticking to everything and not getting chopped down and well incorporated.
