Once again I've decided to go with that whole alchemy thang that happens when I combine date, vanilla, and ground sesame. It's not that it turns to gold or anything so prosaic. It's just that it's more than you think it's going to be. It doesn't taste all date-y and seed-y. It's delicious and wholesome at the same time. And these are a great way to start the day, or a snack on the go. Grain free, gluten free, dairy free, sugar free, nut free. But still super good for you, super moist, super yummy. How does she do it? The best part is my kid loves them and is happy to start the day with them, which I know will give him the energy he needs to play and learn.
