Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use different types of nuts or dried fruits in this recipe?
Absolutely! You can substitute dates with dried apricots or raisins, and add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for added crunch. Just be sure to adjust the sweetness accordingly if you're using sweeter fruits.
What can I do if the mixture is too sticky to roll into balls?
If the mixture feels too sticky, try chilling it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm it up. If you prefer, you can also lightly coat your hands with coconut or a bit of oil to help roll the mixture into balls more easily.
Is this recipe suitable for people with egg allergies?
This recipe contains eggs, but you can create an egg-free version using flaxseed meal or chia seeds as a binding agent. Mix 1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal or chia seeds with 2.5 tablespoons of water and let it sit for a few minutes to thicken before adding it to your mixture.
