Sugar-Free Date Rolls

Obviously, date rolls are sweet and nutrient-filled. Although it is not ideal for diabetics to indulge in large quantities of the sweet, they are much better than candy loaded with sugar. The added nuts and poppy seeds are rich in protein and calcium, helping the date rolls easily fall on the sweet spectrum's richer side.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED

1 tablespoon ghee, 1 cup of black dates, 1 tablespoon of chopped almonds, 1 tablespoon of chopped pistachios, 1 tablespoon of chopped walnuts, and 2 tablespoons of poppy seeds for coating.

STEPS TO FOLLOW

• Begin by heating the ghee in a saucepan, then add the chopped dates and cook in the ghee on a low flame, stirring continuously for 5-10 minutes until well combined with the ghee and made into a soft lump.
• Remove them from the heat and mix the chopped dates with the nuts well.
• Roll the date and nuts mixture into rolls and sprinkle each roll with poppy seeds and cool to set.
