Ingredients
  

1 cup pitted Medjool dates, packed

1/2 cup raw pistachios, finely chopped (plus extra for rolling)

1/2 cup rolled oats

2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

2 tablespoons rose water

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (optional, for rolling)

Edible rose petals (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a food processor, combine the pitted Medjool dates and melted coconut oil. Pulse until the mixture is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. The texture should resemble a sticky dough.

    Add Dry Ingredients: Add the finely chopped pistachios, rolled oats, rose water, honey (or maple syrup), chia seeds, and sea salt to the date mixture. Pulse again until all ingredients are well combined. The mixture should stick together when pressed but not be overly wet.

      Form the Bites: Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper. Using your hands, take small portions of the mixture (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into bite-sized balls. If desired, roll these balls in the extra chopped pistachios or shredded coconut for added texture.

        Chill: Place the energy bites on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

          Garnish (Optional): If you want a touch of elegance, gently press an edible rose petal onto the top of each energy bite after chilling.

            Serve: Enjoy these Sweet Pistachio Rose Energy Bites as a nutritious snack or a delightful dessert. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
