Add the raw sprouted cashews to the bowl of a food processor and pulse for about 30 seconds until finely ground into small crumbs.
- 3
Add the chopped Medjool dates, ground cardamom, fine sea salt, and warm water to the food processor.
- 4
Process on high for 1 to 2 minutes, stopping once to scrape down the sides, until a sticky, uniform dough gathers together into a ball.
- 5
Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and roll each firmly between your palms into a compact, smooth truffle.
- 6
Gently roll each ball through the toasted almond flour until evenly coated on all sides.
Store these bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, or freeze them for up to two months. If your dates feel firm or dry, soak them in warm water for 5 minutes and drain thoroughly before blending.
