When the weather gets colder and colder our bodies crave
more sweet and warming foods, that's why in winter we eat
more chocolate and more soups.
As we are allowed to more sweetness it doesn't mean that
we have to abuse it.
An easy way to make sweetness healthier is to avoid refined
sugar substituting it with sweetners with higher glycemic index.
Maple syrup , applecider and agave are more gentle on our system.
This is a guilt-free sweet dessert!
Pistachos and dates super-delicious balls
Ingredients for 30 balls:
1 cup unsalted pistachos
1 cup pitted dates (around 8 fruits)
1 TBS maple syrup
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1TBS grinded pistachos and 1 pinch salt for topping
In a small food processor grind pistachos to a fine meal.
Remove pistachos and chop the dates.
In a bowl mix pistachos, maple syrup and cinnamon with your hands to obtain a sticky paste.
Form a small ball with your hands taking 1/2 tsp of paste, then toss it in the salted pistachos meal.
Repeat same operation till paste is finished.
You can keep the balls in an airtight container for 1 week.
DELICIOUS and EASY!
