In a medium mixing bowl add the dates. Add enough hot water to cover the dates. Let sit for 3-5 minutes. Drain water and lightly squeeze dates.
In a food processor, add the soaked dates, unsweetened coconut shreds, lime zest and juice, and collagen peptides.
Pulse a few times to break up the dates. Process for 20-30 seconds or until mixture is well incorporated, sticky and forming a large ball.
Remove the mixture from the food processor. Scooping a tablespoon size of mixture out, roll it between the palms of your hands. Continue until all mixture is rolled out. Makes approximately 24 balls.
Store in an airtight container in pantry or freezer.
