Gaby's Bakery - Apricot and Date Energy Balls

This week we’re looking at a healthier sweet. Now I’m charged with taking ten years off Michael, with just two weeks to go, his between-meals snacking around the house needs some restrictions. These energy balls satisfy a need for sweetness but in a healthy and satisfying way.

Apricot & Date Energy Balls

Ingredients:
140gms dried pitted dates
100gms soft dried apricots
100gms ground almonds
25gms sesame seeds
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp cocoa powder

Method:
Soak the dates in 4tbsp of boiling water for 30mins. Place the dates, water and rest of the ingredients in a food processor and blitz until everything is incorporated and you have a smooth mixture. Roll into balls and leave to chill in the fridge for an hour. They will keep best if stored in the fridge.

Enjoy.

Sometimes a more dramatic change is called for and Rosie was clearly in the mood for something different.

Some days she thought about a very short crop but I thought that was a look we could ease towards gradually. We could start today with a short transformation into a sassy, chic, shorter layered
