12 servings
- 2 cups medjool dates, pitted
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, divided
- 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp ground ceylon cinnamon
Ingredient noteSome low histamine plans avoid cinnamon, but cinnamon doesn't actually contain histamine. This recipe only uses about 1/8 teaspoon per serving. If you prefer to always avoid true ceylon cinnamon, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ½ tsp ground ginger
Ingredient noteSmall amounts of ground ginger are often well-tolerated on a low histamine diet. This recipe only uses a pinch or less per serving. If you prefer to always avoid ground ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ tsp vanilla powder
- ¼ tsp fine sea salt
Instructions
- 1
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Spread 1/2 cup of the shredded coconut in a shallow bowl or plate — this is the rolling coat. Reserve the remaining 1/2 cup for the food processor.

Add the pitted dates, the reserved 1/2 cup shredded coconut, melted coconut oil, Ceylon cinnamon, ground ginger, vanilla powder, and sea salt to a food processor. Pulse 10–12 times, then process continuously for 30–45 seconds until the mixture clumps together and pulls away from the sides of the bowl — it should hold its shape when pressed between your fingers.
