Ingredients
- 100 g whole almonds roughly chopped
- 70 g Medjool dates pitted weight, chopped small
- 60 g Christmassy mincemeat Maggie’s recipe
Method
- Combine the almonds and dates in a food processor, pulse until they resemble breadcrumbs.

- Shape into walnut size balls and place onto a parchment lined tray and set aside in fridge.

Maggie's Tips
- Vary nuts: Try pistachio, pecans or hazelnuts.
- Don’t have time to make your own mincemeat! Source a good quality one from your local farmers market or deli.
