Ingredients

Directions

Place almonds in a blender or food processor and finely grind. Place in a mixing bowl.

Heat syrup to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, for about 10 minutes. Pour the hot syrup over the ground almonds, add the tahini, and thoroughly mix.

Take a heaping tablespoon of the almond mixture in your hands and form it into a tightly packed ball, about the size of a ping pong ball. Repeat until all mixture has been formed into balls.

Yield: 15 almond bites - 3 per person
