- Soften the dates for a few minutes in some warm water. Slice them open and remove the seed from each date. Roughly chop the dates and place in a food processor.
- Add the maple syrup and pulse until smooth and creamy. You may have to scrape down the sides a few times to make sure everything has been processed.

- Grab about 2 Tbsp of the mixture and roll into a 1 inch ball.
- Gently press the granola around the protein ball and shape back into a ball.
