  1. Add the goji berries and pumpkin seeds into your food processor and blend for about 1 minute until you have a coursely ground texture.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients and blend for another minute – the mixture will still look grainy, but when you squish it, the oils and dates help it stick together.

  4. Place the balls onto a plate and put them in the fridge to firm up.
